There were 15 of us having lunch today. This old bird and these other 14.They like ham sandwiches:) . . . Panasonic DMC FZ28 . . Thanks for taking a look. Your opinions are always welcome and appreciated.
To fill the stomaches of these 14 hungry 'maritime pigeons', a lot of ham sandwiches are required, Lyn, lol
Love this wonderful and clear picture.
Regards, Cornelius.
Beautiful shot. The Gulls just dont have any fear these days do they! Ive had them actually snatch food from my hands as i was about to eat. Gotta love em though lol!
Thankyou for sharing

Lyn - If you find a food that gulls won't eat, please let me know! lol It is interesting that birds line up in the same direction, often but for one. Your photo has excellent clarity and DOF to give each bird its due. Thad
I like this shot also, but I'm not old yet! Gulls will eat anything, fight over it, and enjoy whatever it is. Excellent shot ... nice composition, DOF, and exposure.
You're lucky you didn't get swamped. My wife, son, and I were visiting an old lighthouse on the northernmost point of Michigan's southern peninsula and we watched a woman feed one gull a tidbit. She soon realized her mistake and headed for her car about 50 yards away. By the time she reached her goal it was like a scene out of Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds"... she was surrounded by a cloud of gulls, about 200 of them, all wanting her food. Perhaps yours in New Zealand aren't the flying pigs we have here in the states? A cool perspective on the gulls, Lyn. Thanks for sharing it with us.
If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Gulls and me don't get on at all!...
Nice shot though!...
