Sabine's Gull

Sabine's Gull (Xema sabini)

Okay, if you live within 75 miles of Pennington Flash, you have to make the effort to see this bird. It's putting on an amazing display. I could only stay for half an hour and I got some fabulous captures. I make no excuse for putting three shots on of this wonderful bird.

Great picture of an incredible bird, Carl. Still looking for my first, never mind good enough views for photos like these.

Gosh Carl... you've really got three great pictures of this gull, haven't you.

It's great to see this close head shot and so interesting to see that there's a darker border to his black head.

Very well done lad.
