Black Headed gull
With this shot of a Black Headed gull in its typical summer coat, I say bye bye for some time, as I’m going on holiday tomorrow.
Hope to see you all safe and sound within a few weeks.

Sorry, Mark, I cannot compete with yours ;-) absolutely stunning with the light coming in and the background more or less dark which makes it even more interesting. I sent my pics to friends in the US and each time I have to look up the word for animals, flowers etc. and the word for this one has nothing to do with the German version (laughing seagull). Maybe I should go through your file since you translate everything, very nice! Have a wonderful Easter weekend even though it will be cold. LG JackGunther Hasler 15/11/2009 15:52
Das waren noch Zeiten... Sommer, Sonne und die Lachmöwen in ihrem schönen Prachtkleid! Schön die Nähe und die Verteilung von Licht und Schatten!Gruß, Gunther

a great recording! compliment glg utes. sabine krause 28/10/2009 14:12
shot of the black-headed gull – i like gulls a lot, and this one's chocolate brown feathers round the eyes are beautiful! (the guy who named them must have been distracted or color-blind ; ))). this will sound ignorant, but i never knew that gulls changed feathers with the seasons at all!! so thanks for providing me with that information! pretty frightening too, that they are in their winter coats already – might mean we'll get an early, cold and long one… greetings, sabine.willy ombret 09/08/2009 15:33

Great macro.European seagulls seem to be more sophisticated.
