I love seeing the Atlantic Fiddler Crabs @ Mass Audubon Wellfleet.
A delight to see/hear Laughing Gulls.
One of our favorite restaurants is Moby Dicks. They make the best Fish Tacos, Seafood Plates & Chocolate Frappes.

I See Something

Here’s a laughing gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) I photographed at Gulfport, Mississippi. ...

"A laughing gull sweeps across the sky in mid‑flight, captured from behind and slightly below, giving the viewer the sense of looking up at a bird passing overhead. Its wings stretch outward in a wide, graceful arc, each feather fanned and layered with crisp precision. The tips of the wings are dark, almost black, contrasting sharply with the bright white of the gull’s body.

The bird’s tail feathers flare slightly, forming a neat triangle of white edged in black. Its legs tuck tightly beneath it, small and streamlined, adding to the sense of effortless motion. The background is a smooth, pale gray sky — empty, quiet, and uncluttered — which makes the gull’s form stand out like a clean silhouette carved against soft light.

The image feels serene and airy, as if the gull is gliding through a calm morning sky, wings steady, body balanced, moving with the easy confidence of a bird that knows the wind intimately." - Microsoft Copilot

This is Benjamin. He got one look at my BBQ chip bag and hung out for about an hour. 😂

A laughing gull stands at the edge of the surf. Harsh noon sun makes the bird almost silhouetted against the sea foam green and viridian waves. We named him Benjamin and he hung out for about an hour.
