    Spreading his wings

    I rather liked how the sun was shining through his flight feathers, so of all the pictures I took of this youngster, decided to show you this one. It's possible I may show you a 'normal' pose later. But you've got this one for now.;) TTTW

    Two young 'uns

    Spotted these two out on the water, but couldn't get them to separate, they just twisted their heads about LOL. Again more post processing tweaks to bring out some detail. When, if we get some decent weather, I'll see what I can do 'in camera' on Sports Mode. Sports Mode settings f/5.6 1/350...

    Juvenile Herring Gull

    This is to show Ann what I do when I can't PP the inconvenient grass/leaves/twigs etc... cut it off and show a close crop instead!!:-O Some out of focus blades of grass cut right across his middle and tail, and I'd not a clue where to start to try and repair it, so you've got a close-up instead...

    Blue Harbour

    An immature Herring Gull at Gorleston harbour yesterday. I must admit the water doesn't usually look so blue. It is normally grey and turgid. It's amazing what a bit of sun can do. Ron

    Time's Up

    This juvenile Herring Gull decided that it had posed for long enough and that it was time to leave. I have just remembered an embarrassing incident as I was walking to the harbour. I glanced at some industrial buildings on my left and there, on the roof was a large bird. I realised that it was...

    Juvenile Herring Gull

    I'm hopeless at identifying juvenile gulls (not much better at adults either) so I don't know what sort this youngster is, although I think it is probably either a Herring Gull or Lesser Black-backed.
