I was out rowing, for the first time this year, when I saw this herring gull (Larus argentatus) standing on a seawall. Had to take a picture of the seagull with the snow covered forest as background.
Let me tell you that it is not particularly easy to take photos from a small and rocky rowboat. Especially when you are trying to zoom in on a bird.
Here is another picture of the seawall.

That was an awesome capture under those conditions! Beautiful shot Thomas.
I commend you for going out rowing in what looks like freezing weather.

He looks like a majestic king standing on that stone.
