Photo of great black backed seagull
Taken with Olympus E-500 digital camera April 22nd 2007. Click image for larger view.

This is a great black backed gull (Larus marinus).
It is the biggest kind of seagull with it’s length of 61-74cm and wingspan of 1.4 to 1.7m. A grown gull weighs 1.5-2kg.

I find this bird very fascinating with it’s very coarse cries and rough behaviour. I have seen them snap the neck of smaller seagulls, eating eider ducklings alive and swallowing pretty large cod fish in one gulp.

Check out my other bird photos.

Photo of northern Norwegian harbour taken with Olympus E-500 digital single-lens reflex camera
Taken with Olympus E-500 digital camera 9th March 2007

This is the harbor where I have my fishing boat. The seawall is very effective to keep out bad weather and big waves.
Really enjoyed the evening light and the reflection of the mountains.
