Gus took this series of gulls in flight at the Salisbury Beach State Reservation in Massachusetts on January 22, 2011. He used the Nikon D80 and a 18-200mm lens. I hope you enjoy your birdy skies this weekend! Be sure to click on the Skywatch Friday link to see what everyone else is seeing.
Gulls are great for filling the sky with wings and feathers. A great series of shots from Gus.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well and you were not affected too much by the prevalent blizzards.
Looks like a cold, crisp, but beautiful day at Salisbury Beach! I'm missing my winter birds, but not the cold wind blowing off the ocean. Have a great day. ~karen
ReplyDeleteAlthough gulls are not a favorite of mine, mostly because I am totally innept at identifying them, I do think they are very lovely in flight.
ReplyDeleteThese are excellent shots by Gus. Their is an air of crispness.
ReplyDeleteLove all the action! I have never seen gulls in the snow, before. Likely because so much of the water freezes here in the winter...
ReplyDeleteWonderful series of gull photos! Looks like a beautiful sky too, beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots of the gulls, Kathie! Gus captured the action very well.
ReplyDeleteFabulous series of shots.

ReplyDeleteI especially love the last photo--it's perfect. Love those blue skies too!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the pictures. Gulls are strangely absent around here this winter.
ReplyDeleteNice one gusto!! Look like one whole mess of hungry gulls!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this entire series. I actually just posted my own first time ever Ring-billed Gull images. These are just wonderful and so glad that you got some great captures of the immature ones as well, just beautiful~
ReplyDeleteWhere's Alfred Hitchcock when you need him? Seriously,there's a lot going on with these gulls in the photos-interesting shots!
