A fun thing to watch. Without a doubt, many birds are experiencing frozen water for the first time in their life. Posted 8 years ago

  This reminds me of two exhausted moorhens running on a frozen canal in Wageningen. One of them stopped to get some rest. The other one came back to it, encouraging it to continue.

      I remember that you were ill when I took that photo in Wageningen.
      This photo was taken last year, I uploaded it to show John that there is wildlife in Paris. Last week I was in Tbilisi, Georgia but I am back home now. Posted 8 years ago

The Black-headed gull

The black-headed gull is a small gull that breeds in much of the Palearctic including Europe and also in coastal eastern Canada. Most of the population is migratory and winters further south, but some birds reside in the milder westernmost areas of Europe. Some black-headed gulls also spend the winter in northeastern North America, where it was formerly known as the common black-headed gull.
