He looks like a very content seagull. The softly blurred background is nice, helping to set of the seagull which is in sharp focus. Nice job!

What a fun and cute shot as this gull looks frustrated from the pelicans who have eaten all the fish. Good focus, frame and a profile view. Very good shot on the face.

Nice photo of this gull in partial shadows and sunlight. It looks relaxed as it sits wishing it had been a little earlier in arriving to get fish parts. You captured a nice sharp eye and fine feather detail in this photo. Good one and thanks for sharing this sweet gull with us.

Excellent close up, Mary, of this lovely seagull sitting enjoying the sun, looking quite at ease with his surroundings. I like the angle you used for this showing him partly in the shade.

Lighting and focus very good. Very nice composition. Suzanne
