Just a quick post today. I decided to check out the roof where the gull chicks had been raised, and lo and behold one of them was back up there! At least I presume it's one of the original pair. I suspect it's been roof-hopping (the buildings are quite close to each other) and has decided to return to base for a while.
Camera note: photo taken with the EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens.

15 Jul 2008Cynthia, he certainly seems to have put on some size since the last shots. They grow up so quickly these days!

15 Jul 2008Mark, he'll keep the speckled brown look for a year or so. I think they get their full adult plumage when they're about two years old so it's a slow transformation.
