Maybe my gull photos will get some love here? My birding friends don't seem to appreciate them, lol. I took this last week after an ice storm.

Oly E-M1 @ 264mm, f/8, 1/800s ISO 200.

During breeding season the ring-billed gull's skin around their eyes turns red to signify their ready for mating. It's their most beautiful look of the year IMO.
