The Black-headed Gull,
This species takes two years to reach maturity. First year birds have a black terminal tail band, more dark areas in the wings, and, in summer, a less fully developed dark hood.

This is a noisy species, especially at colonies, with a familiar "kree-ar" call. Its scientific name means "Laughing Gull

Szia Jóska!
Gyönyörű dankasirály-páros, szép fotó. Kristálytiszta, éles, ahol kell (madarak + ág). Az ág textúrája különösen a bal oldali madár alatt jön ki remekül. A háttér is remekül kent.
Grat és üdv Laci
