This way an attempt to photograph birds in flight. It was a wet and rainy day so light was poor.

I set the ISO at 200 for a little more speed. This shot was hand held at about 180mm on the zoom, taken from a bridge next to where these birds were feeding.

This is a Black headed gull, (Larus ridibundus)which is a common inland species in England. It regularly feeds, and in the summer breeds at flooded gravel pits, nature reserves and lakes.
