Herring Gull and Chicks

You know how I like birds, well, here in Brighton we are very fortunate to be sleeping upstairs in the loft conversion which Paul recently completed (he's a carpenter). It's fabulous and the views are stunning. The landing window is level with the chimney pots on next door's roof and some Herring Gulls are nesting there. They have 3 fluffy chicks. How good is that?? Only 2 chicks are visible on this picture.
I know they are a nuisance but you can't help relating to them close up

Well spotted, great capture, don't think I've ever seen a gull chick before

Wow! I have never seen Herring gull chicks!

@virtualbrownie The chicks are so cute aren't they and because I don't live near the sea I can get excited about gulls.

@dizzyd @craig3f2 I haven't seen them before either. I couldn't believe how lucky I was seeing them so close yet inside the house where I didn't disturb them.

Cute little chicks, glad you explained the loft conversion. I had visions of you on the roof!

@chimfa I've done some crazy things to get a good shot but I draw the line at climbing on to a roof!!
