More Herring Gulls with Humpback Whale (Larus argentatus & Megaptera novaeangliae)

Another shot from weekend whale watch. It was great. We saw so many whales and lots of Pelagic birds which I only got a few photos of. The gulls would gather round and land on the whales head as it surfaced to feed. It was really quite amazing to watch.
