Herring Gull On Alton Baker Pond

Usually, when the gulls come inland it means a storm along the coast. I don't know why this solitary gull was at the pond when I walked by in Alton Baker Park, but I was grateful that it posed for me.

Fabulous shot, Vern! You have such an eye (and photographic skill) for dramatic light settings like this. Beautiful. V

Amazingly calm setting for a gull. Maybe he was having some R&R away from the noisy beach. Beautiful composition. Voted.
