Our two in Reykavik are back and I might pay them a visit as I've not seen this species this year yet ;-) But the weather is awful!chrishttp://chrisphotonature.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797156419109968733.post-64061071161112252482012-02-23T18:55:53.094-05:002012-02-23T18:55:53.094-05:00It's amazing the difference in our countries! ...It's amazing the difference in our countries! We have Ring-bills and Herring Gull every where all year long and no one cares much. In the winter here we get Iceland, Glaucous, Thayer's, Bonaparte's, and a few more. I just have a hard time going through the pooping hordes trying to figure out who is who!Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02850241304894291160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797156419109968733.post-13671738109393629102012-02-23T18:53:45.728-05:002012-02-23T18:53:45.728-05:00The perched gull was a different Great Black-backe...The perched gull was a different Great Black-backed, there were quite a few of them to be seen. The flying one may have been a juvenile or whatever cycle they call them! I have a few other shots and I don't see white wings tips on top of the wings and a black streak on the tail. I was hoping for a Black-tailed Gull as one had been spotted there, but this guy is way too dark.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02850241304894291160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797156419109968733.post-44967430378675685472012-02-23T18:50:54.360-05:002012-02-23T18:50:54.360-05:00You're my hero...oops, I shouldn't say tha...You're my hero...oops, I shouldn't say that!
