Seagulls Not In Flight


Seagulls not in flight!

I tried to capture a bird flying up the sky once but it flew so fast. And when I checked the picture, all I saw was the sky without the bird. But when I saw this flock of seagull, I took the chance to capture a photo of them at a distance. Darn, only one flew in while the rest seemed to enjoy the warmth breeze of the sea. I caught that one in a low flight, anyway.

    Nice, my opinion has changed as I’ve gotten older. I grew up on a river where they were small and nasty and I didn’t like them a bit. I was surprised to see how big they are near bigger bodies of water, and I respect them more there where life is harder.

    Gail, I was surprised, too. They’re as big as chickens. I thought first they were ducks. :-)

    Mahirap kumuha ng picture na ganyan no? Si Sean sinusubukan kong kunan ng pic na tumatalon, hindi ko makuha ang timing, either tatalon pa lang o nakatalon na. Gusto ko sanang kunan yung naka taas na yung feet sa ground.

    Hahaa! Amor, mahirap talaga. Yan nga lang sa ibon, nahirapan na ako, pano na lang kaya sa taong nakatalon na sandali lang, bagsak na uli. :-)

  6. Wow, that’s a nice picture. Where I live, seagulls are like non existent. Crows on the other hand are in abundance … LOL!

    Nick, now I know. Even the birds have their own special place, too. Perhaps they should have it’s nationality, too, hahaa!
