The seahorse certainly captures the eye right away! You never had sea monkeys as a child? Very cool shot!

Well if this isn't just tooooo cool. It's amazing what an accessory...such as a sea horse....can make to perking up a common bird. Well done.

It must be great to live in a place where Laughing Gulls are common birds.
Reminds me of the Caribbean (Sorry for the whine, the winter was too long and wet this year:D)
I like the flight/glide pose and plumage on this bird.
The sea-horse is a real treat here, both for the bird and us:)

I like the capture, sharp, nice color. I have seen gulls with clams, snails, starfish and bones from the garbage but never a seahorse. There are Laughing Gulls reported in Plymouth and I will go and search them out tomorrow.
