A Day At The Beach

Boy do I love Canon Beach! It was in the mid 70sF today as a slew of people headed for the beach. I scootered there toting my trusty camera. I was not disappointed. There were other photographers there and we sometimes fought for the subjects. Sometimes, the photographers were the subjects.

That seagull was the same one in all the photos. He started on the beach and then took off circling between the two photographers until he was straight into the wind. There he seemed to hover intentionally. He did this same routine at least six times. It was a great opportunity for capturing the bird in flight.
