While out walking I saw a row of seagulls on a gravel bar near the lake shore.
I liked how their bright white contrasted with the blue of the water and mountains.
They almost look like a row of snowballs, but I’m really glad they’re not!
Our shadows are visible in the watery sunlight. It was only about 5C (41F), but quite windless and there was no precipitation of any kind – especially no white stuff!
Happy Monday.

I love your clever title, though I must also say
I love the way you kept the bar gulls “at bay.”

Hahaha. 😁 Thank you very much. I would send a song from the group Flock of Seagulls but I would much rather listen to real seagulls. 😉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcxRMm6Npv4

I very much like the almost monochromatic effect. Quite striking. Cheers.

So funny to see birds all in a line. Maybe these gulls are just waiting for some buoys to come along and ask them to dance. Sorry, could not resist. Happy Monday Lynette. Allan

Hahaha. 😁 A clever catch, Allan.
They were standing on a gravel bar at the mouth of a creek that empties into the lake. I liked the pattern of the bar, too. It gave a bit of a less regimented look. Cheers.

They sure do. We love walking along there and I like the interplay of light and colour on the lake also.

They had found themselves a convenient perch on a gravel bar, but agreed, not something we ordinarily see.

An aerial shot of the gulls on the gravel bar would almost be the shape of a seagull in flight…..wouldn’t it?!!?

You’re right! I didn’t notice that before – good catch! Thank you – this makes those photos special and apparently the reason why the gulls were parked there. 🙂

I wonder what the attraction was for the seagulls. A food source? The sunshine and warmth of being “on the beach” (sort of)? The fresh water flowing past? The safety of being out in the water but also out of the water?

I’m not sure. They were all huddled together along the sand bar; it looked to me like they were just resting. One or two juveniles were flying around, but otherwise, no swimming, eating or even chatting. Maybe they were cursing the weather and trying to keep their feet warm … 😉

The scenic beauty has been captured quite nicely here and the row of seagulls enchance it further with their unique blend.

Thank you very much. 🙂 The weather was beautiful and we had a bit of sun after days of winter rain, so this little seagull formation was a lovely little sight.

Great captures. Love the contrast and reflection of the seagulls in the water. Agreed, much better than snow.

Thank you very much, Linda. I do as well, and I love how pretty they look all cuddled together on the gravel bar.
