Black Headed Gull

That's a lovely shot, treeve. How close did you get - or were you on the Prom with a telephoto lens?

Thank you. One advantage of this new camera, at 30x power zoom lens (from 28 - 800mm) is that I can get to animals, without letting them get anxious or feeling under threat. There were a group of them (maybe 12) dabbling and dancing in the weed, this one stayed still long enough to make the shot. So, yes I was standing on the Promenade.
