Of course, the birds seen most often at the seashore are gulls; and that was true during our beach times in Florida in January. They are all little beggars, staking out a space near any humans that look like they might have food. Since my hubby and I never go anywhere without food, well, we had lots of opportunities to photograph gulls.
This one, tired of waiting for a handout, decided to take a nap.
He does have two legs but seems to prefer using them one at a time.
Nice photos, Linda !
ReplyDeleteHi Linda All wonderful shots of the Gulls but I just love the one taking a nap best!
ReplyDeleteawesome close-ups. what a cutie. nice!!! ( :
ReplyDeleteI love these birds and enjoy their company. Lovely captures, Linda!
ReplyDeletejust awesome photos, again! love these. you got them nice and relaxed.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice of these gulls to pose so nicely for you, especially considering that you provided handouts for them. All of these photos are marvelous.
ReplyDeleteAmazing set of photos today! You captured them beautifully. Love the one with its head tucked over its back.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots Linda, I like to take bread down to them. Locals spot me as a tourist and shake their heads.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! You managed to make those little beggars look so cute! When I go to the beach, they are very bossy and bold. If you even look like you're eating they hang out by our blanket screeching for attention. Yikes. Thank you for helping me see beauty in them :)

I love all the feather detail you have in these pictures.
ReplyDeleteUh-oh, I have some competition! You captured such wonderful details on these gulls. I know they are considered pesky and greedy, but I love them. The one with his face tucked in the wing is super sweet!
ReplyDeleteWow, those are excellent captures, Linda. Love the sleepy guy and the one with the trick leg. :)
ReplyDeleteThe first photo looks like a painting.... I enjoy gull watching...sassy little beggars :)
ReplyDeleteI would never be able to get so many usable bird shots. So hat's off to you. These are great.
ReplyDeleteYou must have had fun with shooting the gulls, they are impressive models. I love the one with its beak hidden amid its feathers. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful details here.. but the near-to-napping gull warmed my heart.
