Little Gull (Larus minutus)

Sympathetic colours and an interesting perch make this shot of an adult Little Gull in winter plumage.

Canon 1Ds MkII, Canon 100-400mm IS USM lens, 1/2,700th sec, f/10, 400mm at ISO 500. Distance to subject: c 5m

    As birds, they are much overlooked Tim, but always worth a shot or two. Lovely image,

    Thanks Alan. I confess I do struggle with gull ID and their various plumage stages.
