Oh thank you, Michelle. This beautiful seagull was standing on the railing of the walkway that spans the water of the John Heinz compound. He was with a whole lot of other seagulls. He just kept preening and I was able to get closer and closer. And he was in just the right light. Too much fun!! #9785629
