20110831 087 Bonapartes Gull.jpg

Ottawa River/Andrew Haydon Park

Thank you all for your kind comments on yesterdays posting of this Bonaparte's Gull in an unusual head-on, raised-wing, pose. Yesterday's posting was going to be my last one of this Gull; but, here's a side-view of the raised-wing pose. No, I didn't run around the Gull to get this shot, the two shots were actually taken about a week apart.

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor 500mm f/4D IF-ED AF-S II
1/2500s f/7.1 at 700.0mm iso320 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Raised wings reveal the genesis for design of similarly appearing seaplanes! V

Another great pose, Hank. I will bet its mother told it that if you keep doing that with your wings they will grow that way. :O)
