Bonaparte's Gull, Upper Newport Bay, Orange County California
Caught this juvenile stalking its prey on the mud flat in the salt marsh.
Damn, cool shot. Love seeing a bird doing more than just posing and looking fabulous - it’s cool that you caught this
I got lucky, it's prey, not so much.
Nice shot. I'll try to remember to swing by tomorrow and see I get lucky too!
I hope you are lucky. FYI, a Bald Eagle has been around the bay the past couple weeks. Snagged a couple Coots near the old salt dike last Thursday and was seen harassing an Osprey by mile marker 2.25 yesterday.
Oh awesome! I drove the back bay road, whatever it's name is, today after looking at the big surf. I will take some time tomorrow as well. I have never seen a Bald Eagle in Southern California.
