  1. Super clear shot, wonderful capture! Posted 8 years ago
    1. Thanks! I actually spotted it walking along the river about 30 meters out. It was coming towards me, looking for food under rocks and such, so I just sat there and waited for it to get close enough for a good shot. Plus, you know, it's a gull, so not the shiest of birds to begin with. Posted 8 years ago, modified 8 years ago
