Crouching seagull. by maggie2

Crouching seagull.

He really didn't want me to notice him. So he crouched down and hurried along. For my part, I pretended to take pictures of the grass behind him. :-)

Thanks everyone for the very kind words. I do appreciate it.
Lol!!! He's pretty!

Nice shot! When I saw the title I started looking for the "hidden tuna". ;)

He has the stance of a cat stalking its prey! You obviously caught him off guard and came away with a terrific photo!

I'm sure his mother would tell him to stand up straight and stop slouching!
October 4th, 2011  
He's cute!! Looks like he is shy!
October 4th, 2011

Sensational colours on this little guy - he does look like he is thinking "if I can't see you, you can't see me". Great capture (of the grass too tee hee)

Aaww...I love those speckeldy-brown ones! We just get the plain old grey and white ones in Aus...

He is going to have to try a little hard if you doesn't want to be noticed by someone with a camera in their hands. Great shot.
October 4th, 2011  
He kind of reminds me of a cat hunching his back!! Lol. Neat shot!
October 4th, 2011

October 4th, 2011

October 4th, 2011  
It's difficult to outsmart these babies ... they're not that gullible!
October 4th, 2011  
Fun and games. Interesting posture & detail.
October 4th, 2011

Abraham Lincoln, President Lincoln's 3rd Cousin, 3-times Removed, was here, had a look around, read some of the comments and began to wonder if commenting is what 365 days org is all about. I had hoped it was a place to post a better than average photograph. I guess it is about visits and back and forth commenting. You comment on mine and I will come over to your place and comment on your's. Now, I see people are posting and thanking people for the comment before it is even left. There is a name for that...
October 4th, 2011  
Abraham, My intention is not to thank people in advance for comments I expect. My thanking people was meant for the pictures I have posted before today that has already been commented on. I might have worded my thank you a little differently but I didn't know it was a problem.

October 4th, 2011  
great find.....as always i enjoy your work
October 4th, 2011  
He really is ducking down, what a funny capture!
October 4th, 2011  
hunkering down, juvenile seagulls always look so big
October 4th, 2011  
i love your sense of humor:)
i just love seagulls.......wish we had them here! this is a great shot of this little guy!
October 4th, 2011  
we all knew what your thank you meant Maggie and i personally think the comment that was made to you was quite rude. you did not deserve that.
October 4th, 2011  
@paulaag Thank you Paula. I'm not too concerned just a little surprised.

I love that behavior in birds. I had a similar experience with a killdeer.
October 5th, 2011  
It is a lovely photo, it's so young and lost it's mummy. looks upset.
October 5th, 2011

October 5th, 2011  
This is funny with him pretending he wasn't there and you pretending to take the picture of something else. Even though he's sloughed down, you managed to get a good picture.
