I can’t wait for Ft. DeSoto “reunion” with you and Howard. It will be a warm ocean setting! I think we should rent canoes and take their “trail” where you can really see our feathered friends. Your photos of the Western Gull are great! Ft Steven’s is very special; So from one Coast then we will meet up again at another Coast. Life is Good! 🙂 K
Life is good! I sure hope you guys got to see the sunset on the Snake River last night! When we were there, we sat for the longest time and just watched the color changes! Hope you left W2 with a happy heart! I can’t wait for our “reunion” and spending time at Fort DeSoto! From the photos, taken by “Friends of Fort DeSoto” and placed on FB, it will be awesome! Travel safe and have fun along the way.
Way to go, Seagull! Great series! Am working on drawings of seagull juvies for my new quilt… will send pictures as they progress. Have a wonderful visit in Astoria, one of my favorite places!
Happy trails to you and =<3
Can’t wait to see your quilt photos! Astoria was a fun place to visit. We enjoyed sitting at the bar at the Rouge Brewery, sampling beer, talking to the other bar stool occupants and eating a delicious meal! We also enjoyed watching a Lewis & Clark solider fire his musket!

success, he won’t go hungry. great series.
Felicia, thanks! It was fun watching this gull drop and pick-up this poor crab! I just wondered what that was all about? Nature’s way!
Wonderful pictures and a determined hunter. Love the one where his wings are straight up.
Thank you!!! Just wish I would have been closer! 🙂
Wonderful shots, Sheila. That’s quite a big crab. 🙂
Thanks Sylvia!
What a great series!
Thank you Tami!!
It looks like we are both seeing gulls nowadays! Fun series of shots!
I love shooting gulls, they are comical! Some people don’t like them, but I do! Happy Birding!
Great photos! Hope he enjoyed his crab dinner! 🙂
I think he did, if he didn’t drop in back in the ocean! 🙂
he found a good sized one!
Any bigger and I think I would have fraught him over it!!
That is so cool…beautiful photos Sheila! The next to the last photo is amazing…
Thanks Gay! He was fun to watch.
Just adding a bit of salty seasoning? Who knows.
Nice pictures.
