One of the rarest Gulls in the world but fortunately increasing in numbers, not so difficult to find nowadays in the Mediterranean coast of Spain.

Another of Jamies findings. Sunbathing in the beach and snapping Audouins Gull at the same time: a new experience! |:D|

A stunning shot Marian, but not just the bird, the whole composition really is very beautiful.
 
A rare gull photographed with most beautiful setting. It is always a pleasure to see "the firsts" shot with a composition. You did it, Marian. Love it!! :clap:
