Visiting Gulls

It was bitter cold this morning, well below freezing. I was surprised to see a couple of gulls fly in for a visit on our lake.

They kept their distance from our resident geese and rested a few minutes before flying off.

  6. It's good that they could rest a bit and better that you got to get some snaps of them! Great work.

  7. It never ceases to amaze me how birds tuck their bills back like that.
