Herring Gull (Larus argentatus)

It turned out to be rather dismal, a real downer. Here is one I tried to get, I won't do it again.

  27. Well it is very frustrating to try to take pictures in bad weather with poor light!
    Nevertheless, you've performed very well, considering!
    Congrats, Bob!

  28. When you get out and take these beautiful creatures into your lense, it makes me want to go out into the rain to catch the spirit of what your camera catches--what YOU catch.

  29. J'ai souvent croisé le regard de ces goélands sur nos plages et je sais, comme toi, qu'il est le témoin des vols hauturiers, bravant la tempête malgré sur air placide. Ces très beaux oiseaux, à qui tu rends hommage par tes photos, sont malheureusement victimes de la pollution dont les hommes sont coupables.
    Belle journée à toi, ami Bob,

    Roger

  33. Hello Bob, it's good to see that you have photographed it with dark weather.
    We always want good light to photograph, but it does not always, the weather is unpredictable.

    Holt weather not change.
