Never mind the crow bros, here’s the gullfriends.

Herring gulls live for 12 years, mate for life, and are intelligent social birds. This is a place to appreciate positive interactions with the little skwarkers. They are on the red endangered list in the UK and a protected species, so let’s all be nice to them.

Maybe my gull photos will get some love here? My birding friends don't seem to appreciate them, lol. I took this last week after an ice storm.

Oly E-M1 @ 264mm, f/8, 1/800s ISO 200.

During breeding season the ring-billed gull's skin around their eyes turns red to signify their ready for mating. It's their most beautiful look of the year IMO.
