Cleared for Takeoff

Last week when I was at the coast I happened to catch these seagulls as they took off.  It reminded me of a busy day at any given airport.

  1. Thats great Mike, I know exactly what you mean and it is so similar in appearance, even the first one in the distance starting to turn.

  2. Thanks Eve - it's one of those bonus shots that come our way!

    Roy - their "landing gears" are even at various stages of being retracted.

  4. Joan - thank you. This time of year the coast here is occasionally foggy. The gulls have to fly on instruments! :)

  6. Thank you Stacey. When at the coast the fog and cool weather is a nice break from our heat.
