Went to Norfolk again today, wildlife was a little on the sparse side, so I decided to concentrate on "normal stuff" but tried to be a bit different rather than just get "stock" pictures of rarer birds..
The gulls were fighting fiercely over the seeds some of the other photographers had put down to bait the Snowbuntings (which have been done to death) I got some funny looks from a few of the other people, as if to say "wtf is he taking pictures of gulls for" lol, well I just get on with it
The gulls were really going for it, attacking each other on the wing and screeching at each other, I needed all the shutter speed I could get, all these were shot @ 300mm F2.8,
The last 2 are a sanderling (I think) and an oyster catcher, thrown in for good measure.

I think the last one is my favourite, as the slight blur in the legs give a lovely sense of movement.
I was supposed to be in Scotland this week, but the weather is far to dismal up there so i'm hanging on for a while, didn't fancy a 1500 mile trip for the sake of rain.
