A high-angle-style capture of a gull in a steep aerial bank. The focus is on the exquisite rim lighting along the bird's back and the upper plumage of its wings, which catches the natural light against a moody, overcast sky. Unlike a standard silhouette, the exposure reveals the intricate texture of the feathers and the powerful musculature of the wings in motion. The shot highlights the bird's technical mastery of the wind, showcasing the silver-grey highlights that define its form in flight.

I adore the gulls who swoop in and drop mollusks on the rocks below. I really love this shot. I was actually capturing shots of Canadian geese in Portrait and caught this gull by accident! He swooped into my frame!
Yeadon Tarn was partially frozen today but the gulls didn’t seem too bothered. 🥶
c200 Black-headed Gulls vastly outnumbered their grey-legged Common Gull cousins.
Presumably these two species have a common ancestor?

I was not impressing this Ring-billed Gull. They are typically the most common gull here in Buffalo. #ringbilledgull #larusdelawarensis #gulls #laridae #buffalo #eriecounty #wny

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 ;)

Ring-billed Gull, 2nd Winter
I barely raised my camera in time to capture this desaturated image. Good example of taking the shot, even without the correct settings.

Photo of a large, dark-grey bodied gull with a white head and yellow bill sitting atop some lichen-dusted mini boulders, with a deep, light blue sky in the background.
A great black-backed gull, the largest gull in the world. It will even hunt puffins and swallow rabbits 🪶

At the center of the picture is the sticker of a black-headed gull on a neutral dark background. The bird is recognisable by its bright red beak and legs. It is displayed in its juvenile/winter plumage, with only the ear spot on its head being colored dark. It has been painted in aquarel style.
After presenting the pin already, here's another look at the black-headed gull in its juvenile/winter plumage, this time as a sticker!

At the center of the picture is the sticker of a black-headed gull on a neutral dark background. The bird is recognisable by its bright red beak and legs and the dark brown head. It has been painted in color block style.
When I did my research for the black-headed gull pin, I really wanted to add some sticker designs as well, since this bird has a different winter- and summer plumage. Here it is in its adult summer look! 🪶
