Baby Gull
Alcatraz, San Francisco, California, 2007


It was nesting time on Alcatraz. New life comes to a dreary place.

Gorgeous image! Alcatraz means pelican in Spanish, so instead of a dreary place, it's the perfect home to raise a bird family. These spots provide protection from predators and when grown, this chick will be almost as white as a dove. This gull may someday even fly to Mono Lake.
