    My quess would be a first winter Herring Gull, however there have been reports of first winter Greater Black-backed Gulls in the area, which is unusual. I'm thinking horses, not zebras; so Herring. Light overcast, stiff breeze at my back. Ideal as far as I'm concerned. Added canvas via content aware fills. Comments and critique welcomed. regards~Bill

    Nice capture. love the fanned tail and the position of the feet/legs. Looks a little bright to me.

    Hi William, very nicely captured. I might take a look at a version that's a bit darker, but I like it the way it is as well.

    Appreciate the comments, and I agree its a bit too bright. I used curves to darken somewhat and I do think it helped. No flash was used. regards~Bill
