Field Notes

Description:

Two black and white medium size gulls, sitting together on a pier piling. Both are 10 to 12 inches in height.

Habitat:

INtracoastal waterway in an exclosed bay area.

Notes:

Took the shot becausue these two seemed almost affectionate. It's pretty rare to see these guys sitting so close without fighting.
