Thematic Photograph - Hit The Road

 
"Hit The Road"
 
 
Hit the road less travelled.  You never know what you may find.
 
In this case a rather startled small group of Black-headed Gulls.

    1. We hit the road as full-time RVers for over ten years and we still love road trips. You stumbled on a beautiful surprise with those pretty birds! I never get good flight pictures; too old and slow. Thanks for sharing yours.

  2. Yes, it is good advice especially for bird watchers who want to see something slightly different to that which Joe Bloggs seeks.

    1. Yes. That day I had the toddler with me, so whatever we saw was unfortunately generally flying away from us. Doesn't stop her loving birds though.

  5. If we see gulls it usually means that rough weather is on its way and they are too high to photograph. I'm distracted by birds when on any road.

    1. I believe I have heard the saying that gulls inland means bad weather at sea.

  9. Very nice. I try to catch the birds in flight, but it doesn't work out so often.

    1. Thank you. I'm usually not very good at catching birds in flight. This was a lucky shot.

  10. That's a great shot, Nicola. I love the way you caught them all in different poses, except for the two at the bottom. Stunning.

  11. Beautiful light, and gulls look so lovely! We have masses of gulls here on the lake in winter, but they are not so obliging photographically!
