Hey Jody,

Already saw this one over at FM but will comment again. This is awesome! Killer pose.

I have enough trouble with gulls in-flight and you are capturing shots of these guys……I don't know how you guys do it.

Thanks for sharing!

The pose is interesting. There is a considerable loss of details due to the large crop and the bird is too small in the frame IMO.

It's a good capture.....just think that it lost too much detail in a crop. I certainly have never come close to getting one in flight so you're ahead of the game.
