Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

I'm not a Gull expert, but for an unknown reason this Slaty-backed Gull does not seem to be in winter plumage despite it being the end of Feb. Are they already molting?

In a wildlife scene I've never witnessed, a White-tailed Sea Eagle was competing with Cranes and Crows to capture its prey. It meant for some incredible angles and displays.
