Gulls, Garden Flowers and visitors.

In May this year this Yellow Legged Gull was perched on our roof most mornings, but then, I did throw it a few scraps of toast to keep it happy.
Some garden flowers, a lizard, butterflies, a bug, and as many shots as I
could find of the gulls, but unfortunately I didn't take very many this year.

Great photos, all so much fun to see. Love the lighting, the gulls are always a favorite with me and the butterflies, the other critters, beautiful scenery and flowers, all super shots.

Wonderful series of images. As you might imagine I am especially enamoured of the Yellow-legged Gull shots, and I am happy to hear that you shared your morning toast. I hope you added a little peanut butter!

Happy to see the reptile, bugs and blooms. The Gull is looking smart, let's name it Steven Seagull :-)

Such beautifully focussed photographs but I have come to expect that from your superb camera work! Did you see any whimbrels or spoonbills whilst you were on the Algarve?

Phil Slade said...

Oh that blue-green sea. Won't be long now until I'm in Greece and will see a few "yellow-legs"

Beautiful! The rope fence is very simple and in its own way, elegant.

Wonderful! Beautiful!
I love the photo of the Lilies (just after the lizard photos) and the Gull overlooking the people in the water.

Excellent capture over the gulls, flowers and lizard! And you got wonderful light and exposure on all. Love the fence overlooking the ocean and it’s a cool place for summer holidays.

Oh it was lovely to see those sunny beaches and remember what summer was like as we've had such a rainy, grey August and September so far!
I love how the gull has settled down for a rest!
Great photos!

quite rare to see a gull in a garden, but if it is close to a gorgeous beach that explains it :)
