This Gull is stationed here on the South coast of Nova Scotia to guard the fishing fleet when it isn't out on the Banks. The pay isn't great, but the benefits are, and as you can see,he takes his job seriously.

I was waiting for JimboB and his new "Snore Patrol," avie to comment Doug, but I think he overslept.
Looks like the gull is pacing back and forth waiting for some to do something fishy, Doug.
Good shot and narrative.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

He has even a rather serious expression - a no nonsense look. Nice shot Doug.

He looks like you don't want to mess with him - great capture Doug and perfect in B&W (makes him look even more serious!)

This is a great capture. Composition, lighting, detail, subject matter and especially your narrative - really funny and yet suits the photo quite well. The title is superb. Very well done! A favorite!

Nice lighting in the scene and good textures in the pier post. Good composition of the photo, Doug.
