Soaring Bird While on vacation in North Carolina I was on Wrightsville Beach taking sunrise pictures. During that time there were a ton of birds swooping down and landing all over the place. I think that I got some really good shots of some of them.  Laughing gull,Leucophaeus atricilla,North Carolina,beach,bird,sand,water Click/tap to enlarge

The laughing gull is a medium-sized gull of North and South America. It breeds on the Atlantic coast of North America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. Northernmost populations migrate further south in winter, and this species occurs as a rare vagrant to western Europe.
