What sort of a seagull is that? They all seem to have different juvenile colours?

Excellent pic. Did you use a lot of zoom?

Blush!!

Ok, that could be a greylag or a faroese, I guess. Or a 57 varieties.

That was the sort of shot I used to take, too.

But it's well worth plugging away.

Keep 'em up. Kind comment doesn't always actually help. Also, as I've been saying to Gerry, the HS10, although a good camera, is not that easy to come to terms with quickly.

Hi Geoff

I haven't a clue what type seagull it is

I didn't use a lot of zoom between x4 or x5 (focal lenght 20.4mm)

Hi Simon oops I mean cyb

I don't mind you being picky it's the sort of constructive criticism like yours that made me want to join BCUG

Did you have to use a lot of zoom for the Grey heron? We have them in our area but they are not easy to get close to, nice shot.
