Black Skimmer at St Pete Beach

These are Black Skimmer flying along the edge of St Pete Beach. It was close to sunset, so the light wasn't great. Just got this one, and it is cropped. There were people in the water, didn't want to show them.

Gulls along the beach

It has been a Gull day. But this is the last post of the gulls unless I took more on this trip. Just have to wait and see.

Did better at this than I ever would have with the point and shoot. Sure am glad I was able to get my Canon D-SLR.

Gulls at St Pete Beach

This 2nd one is at sunset. Like the way the light is reflecting on the gull. This photo might have been taken at Maderia Beach instead of St Pete Beach. I did take some sunset photos at Maderia. Notice in this photograph you can see some color on the tip of his bill. I think this are Laughing Gulls, but still not sure. Several of you have probably left me info on the earlier post (hopefully).

Can also see the the color at the end of his bill in this photograph.

Gulls fishing

I hope you can enlarge this so you can this. As the birds would dip close to the water the fish would jump out of the water all at once. You can see the ripples in the water.

These were taken at the same time as some of the earlier post. We were at the end where the people go to fish.

Gull in prayer

We should be leaving St Pete Beach going home this morning. Please say a short prayer for our safety as we travel.

More Brown Pelicans at John's Pass Boardwalk

Love that wing span.

And then landing.

Then I got another one as he is coming in to land on one of the post.

And then as he is trying to steady himself on the post.

Brown Pelicans at John's Pass

Here I have my favorite poses, on the post.

Brown Pelicans at John's Pass Boardwalk

The fishing boats come in close to the boardwalk at John's Pass. The fishermen feed the scraps to the Pelicans and Herons.

I think this bottom photo is one of my favorite. Although I like the ones of them on the post.

Various Brown Pelicans in flight

Just some photographs of Brown Pelicans in flight.

On a mission across the shoreline.

This last one he must have been fixing to dive for the fish.

Gull at Lake Seminole Park

Thought I had this one figured out, until the Gull I had picked said it had red legs. Which Gull do you think it is?
