My Territory!

I was getting ready to take a shot of these two gulls each sitting on its own pole when suddenly one chased the other away...not exactly the image I wanted to take. That being said, there is something about it that keeps my attention; maybe it's the drama of the moment. ;-)

Thank you so very much for your comments and faves, my friends; most appreciated! It is wonderful to know that ipernity will be here for us all to partake in as a community!

Well caught Val. Action shots of birds are more difficult to capture but usually more interesting than static shots.

A very dramatic photo, indeed! I.m sure it's better than a photo of the two perched.
