I do believe it is smiling at us JJ and a great image of this large Gull buddy!
 
A brilliant close up and a colourfully captured shot you have of this big beauty JJ, well done.

Our most impressive full, and doesn't this one know it! A splendid sight. Superb fine feather detail on the flanks. An excellent capture JJ.

I'd love to see one from home but while they do appear at suitable sites in London in winter, it would have to be a very lucky fly past where I am.
