Gros plan sur un goéland leucophée adulte, de profil faisant face à la droite de l'image. On voit sa tête, son cou bien droit et le début de ses épaules/dos. Il a l'œil grand ouvert cerclé de rouge orangé. Il fait face à la lumière du soleil qui fait ressortir les détails de ses plumes. Derrière lui, un pot de fleurs en terre cuite rectangulaire avec des plantes aux feuilles vert tendre et aux tiges rougeâtres qui se détachent bien sur le fond vert foncé.
#BirdOfTheDay : le thème choisi par @robcrank68.bsky.social est une belle lumière #GoodLight et/ou les mouettes et goélands #Gulls
on combine les deux et on obtient ce goéland qui vient souvent piquer les croquettes dans l'assiette du chat chez mes parents.

Photo of a bathing gull. The head id submerged and not visible. One wing is stretched out into the air. Droplets of water are flying away from the bird. The slightly textured water in foreground and background shoes blue and orange reflections.
A gull capture that always makes me laugh. Should fit the brief for @alan678.bsky.social ‘s #birdoftheday

A Yellow-legged Gull enjoys peak relaxation, sitting calmly by itself on a dark volcanic rock perch.
Found the ultimate "Do Not Disturb" spot. This Yellow-legged Gull is just chilling alone on the volcanic rocks in the Azores, clearly recharging its social battery.
Gotta respect the need for quality me-time. 😌

Two Yellow-legged Gulls are perched together on a dark, secluded volcanic cliff overlooking the ocean, embodying "weekend goals."
Weekend goals: find a beautiful, secluded spot to relax with your partner.
These Yellow-legged Gulls are definitely off to a great start on this volcanic cliff. Pure bliss!

An adult Yellow-legged Gull appears to be addressing a group of younger gulls, one of whom seems to be "sassing back" with an open beak.
The Monday morning meeting is off to a great start. The adult Yellow-legged Gull is trying to get everyone on the same page for the week, and that one youth in the middle already has questions... and some attitude.
Being the only adult in the room is tough.

A young, mottled brown Yellow-legged Gull flies in front of a rocky ledge, a small fish held firmly in its beak like a "breakfast to-go" order.
Already crushing this Friday morning. This young Yellow-legged Gull has its breakfast to-go and is heading off to start the day.
That's the kind of productive energy we're all trying to channel before the weekend!

A Yellow-legged Gull stands on a dark rock, having just placed a mysterious white object on it, as if setting a table for a meal.
I watched this Yellow-legged Gull pull its feast out of the water and place it right on this rock. Guess you gotta have a meal at the table, right?
But the real question is: what's for dinner? Scraps from a fishing boat? A strange invertebrate? Or just some fancy trash?

Bonjour Bluesky! Le #BirdOfTheDay de ce dimanche est #WebbedFeet. Voici Roland le Goéland leucophée, qui squatte le jardin de mes parents (au grand dam de Harry le chat).

Un goéland adulte perché sur une cheminée en béton partiellement couverte de mousse. Le goéland est de face légèrement orienté vers la droite. Il se tient debout, le cou dressé. Son dos est baigné de soleil. Le fond derrière lui est flou mais on distingue des arbres, des habitations et un ciel bleu lumineux.

Two Yellow-legged Gulls on a wet beach. The left gull is ruffled and disheveled, while the right gull is smooth and walking confidently, representing a Friday transformation. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
The ultimate Friday before & after.
On the left: Me, barely surviving the work week.
On the right: Me, clocking out for the weekend like a boss.
These Yellow-legged Gulls just get it. 😂

A single Yellow-legged Gull "party crasher" flies within a huge flock of Cory's Shearwaters over the ocean in the Azores. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
Time for a game of "Where's Waldo?" (Seabird Edition!)
This huge flock of Cory's Shearwaters over the Azores has an imposter in its midst. Somewhere in this photo is a single, clever Yellow-legged Gull hiding in plain sight.
Think you can spot it?

A pair of monogamous Yellow-legged Gulls stand together at their prime nesting spot on the grassy slopes of Sete Cidades. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
This Yellow-legged Gull couple has found a prime nesting spot amongst the grasses on the Sete Cidades caldera.
Fun Fact: These birds are largely monogamous, and the partners share incubation duties for about a month. A true team effort!

Yellow-legged Gulls are scattered across the different levels of a tiered cliff formation at Sete Cidades. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
Tiered living at its finest! The cliffs of Sete Cidades provide the perfect condo building for these Yellow-legged Gulls. Each level offers safety, space, and spectacular views. From the top-floor penthouse to the cozy balconies below, it's a bird's paradise.

A majestic Yellow-legged Gull is perched on a high volcanic rock like a "king of the castle," surveying the Azores coastline below. Photo by Wendy Dembowski.
That look you get when you find the absolute best seat in the house and you're not moving for the rest of the day. This Yellow-legged Gull, perched on its volcanic throne in the Azores, is the undisputed king of the castle. What a view.

A pair of Yellow-legged Gulls doing a final inspection of their nest site on Sete Cidades. Location is everything: it needs protection and good access to foraging grounds. This spot ticks all the boxes. ✅

A Yellow-legged Gull glides with effortless grace, its long wings outstretched against a soft, overcast sky. Photo by Wendy Dembowki.
Gliding into the end of the week like... This Yellow-legged Gull from my Azores trip has a level of effortless grace that I am trying to channel for the rest of the day. A beautiful moment of just soaring on the ocean breeze.

A Yellow-legged Gull hovers with a look of intense, dramatic focus, perfectly representing a mid-day coffee craving.
This Yellow-legged Gull has the exact same dramatic intensity I have when the afternoon coffee craving hits. That focused stare is serious business.
Another incredible moment from my trip to the Azores!

Just saying - they started watching me first (the disadvantage of having a roof window). Now they’re sabotaging my camera ;)

Juvenile yellow-legged gulls (Larus michahellis) on my roof. Put my birdbuddy there (without food) to check what is really going on there ;)

Un goéland de dos, la tête tournée vers la droite. Il est posé sur le petit toit de tuiles rouges d’une sortie de cheminée. Sa silhouette se découpe sur un beau ciel bleu, et son oeil jaune cerclé de rouge vous fixe avec intensité.
Bonjour le ciel bleu!

Cannes Film Festival, France, some years ago: A close-up of a yellow-legged seagull standing on the ledge of a terrace, tilting its head and looking inquisitively at the camera. In the background, a flat roof and the azure sea stretch out, where a large white yacht sails past, out of focus. The yacht was my intended subject, as I was filming ambience footage for a tv piece—until the seagull captured my full attention.
When your seascape footage gets photobombed by an aspiring actor.
