Taking off

I had to kill some time today while waiting for my daughter so went down to Portarlington on the Bellarine Peninsula. This Gull was showing off close to me. I got a few shots of him in flight but I liked this one.
I will try to catch up on views and comments a bit tonight and again tomorrow.
Thanks all for taking the time to look.
