I spotted this Lesser Black-backed gull in January on my way back from Bear Cut Preserve in Miami. I wanted to drive through the parking lot before I jumped on the Rickenbacker to scout out a good sunset spot, when I saw this big boy. So, naturally, I pulled over, jumped out and took a few quick images before he took off.
Interesting facts:
Uncommon and rare visitor from Europe, small numbers found with other large gulls.
Great capture Rachelle! That is a handsome gull! There were a few hanging out close to my house this winter, but they are gone now!
ReplyDeleteguess they hang around only during winter . . .
