While shooting this picture I noticed a man walking across
the gravel embankment of the river.....
...when suddenly numerous seagulls burst into the air...
and then I realized...
...how many, many birds had been sitting quietly...
..and now, disturbed, were soaring in circles above the river.

Cool captures! Love all the seagulls. The man must have spooked them, great timing for your photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing moment that must have been for you! You captured the moment beautifully!
ReplyDeletelove these!
ReplyDeleteThat must have been startling - and so great that you caught it! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great sight to see all those seagulls soaring into the sky!
ReplyDeleteThe birds look like rocks without looking very closely in the first pictures. That probably woke you up when all those birds took flight! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteThey are funny creatures that blend into the scenery until they are disturbed. Great series of shots!
ReplyDeleteWonder what he did to scare them off?
ReplyDeleteGreat 'in flight' shots & love the river scene!
Thanks =)))
