I haven’t had much time lately to write any blogs or sort through the catacombic depths of my photos. Instead I thought I’d share the product of a rather pleasant day of exploring the pier in Galway city recently. I always wanted more flight shots and the less then cautious black headed gulls (and some other species too) seemed like the perfect subjects.

Beautiful photos!! Love the detail :)
ReplyDeleteyep - actually really like the first shot of post.
ReplyDeleteThanks to ye both :-)
ReplyDeleteThat third inflight shot is a cracker.
ReplyDeleteThink that last bird is a common gull and not a ring billed gull. Common gulls can have the band on their bill but the ring billed gull has a pale eye.
