So adorable, Joni. I've never seen gull chicks before. Great shot. l/fv/g+
Joni Eskridge replied:
This was such a great excursion on our Alaska trip, Helen. I used a 100-400mm lens at 400mm - could have used a smidge more for some shots, but they took our small boat fairly close to a large rock formation covered with gulls and their baby chicks, as well as Puffins (no chicks) and Common Murre. It was wonderful!

Thanks so much, Jeff! Our boat excursion in Kenai Fjords was probably the highlight of our Alaska trip - though it's had to pick just one - but the variety of wildlife on that one excursion was the best, and I really enjoyed seeing this huge cliff of gulls and chicks! Thanks for the visit, Jeff!
