Black-headed Gull in Flight

Black-headed Gull in Flight
Captured during a walk around Hilsea, near Portsmouth. Someone had thrown some bread in one of the ponds and this gull managed to get some before it ran out!

They are so quick on capturing such food, often before it has hit the ground. Nice one Keith.

Thank you Judite...............I think it was a bit upset it didn't get a bigger bit of bread, but it was breaking up in the water!

Despite gulls reputation they are handsome and elegant birds as this superb image proves Keith,
Details are captured perfectly especially the water splash and the head of the bird, (large view really is recommended) I also like the colours and the lovely reflections.,
Fabulous image !
