Description
Lured with a few crumbs at a local shopping center I was patient enough to capture this versatile winged carnivore---part fisherman, part scavenger---when the lighting was just right to capture the semi-
translucence beauty of this member of this group of aerial acrobats.
It is not necessary to travel to the beach to find these wonderful creatures. They are know to fly many miles inland during the winter in search of food. They love pizza parlors, and all manner of fast food joints where they are likely to find scraps.

Excellent job getting that lighting. Congrats on your feature in the "Seagulls" group.

I am glad I am finding another "Wings" fan. This one is particularly glorious. I love the outstretched wings, the diagonal position and the light illuminating the bird. You sure know how to capture the subject's personal essence... Peace. Bev
