flying display

one of a series of gulls flying into this narrow cleft in the cliffs and doing a tight turn before going back. There were some young ones in a nest at the end and some flights may have been feedings or recce to see about stealings, but they just looked as if they were having some fun

below lookout station near Porthgwarra


other sizes: small medium large original auto

I bet they don't realise how lucky they are to be able to fly. I was them I do loop-the-loops too. Maybe they do that when we're not looking.

Well, as Cyndi Lauper always said - Gulls just wanna have fun! :o)
