Taken with Canon EF 70-200IS USM lens.
Notice the seagull on the right has a band on his leg so he must have been captured at some stage for some reason and then released.

Wow Ann the clarity, b/w and red really makes this stand out - seagulls are taken so much for granted, but just look at the beautiful pattern in the wings - you don't have to be a swan when you are shooting the photo #7899644Ujjwal Mukherjee September 01, 2009
