    Love the quote, the seagull is probably glad to not be cold anymore.

    Oops. I typed before looking closely at the picture. That wasn't a red place on the bill. So that makes it a ring billed gull. It just looks larger in this situation. Great picture.

    I love that photo. I am originally from Utah and the seagull is our state bird. The only state, I think, that is inland and has seagulls - left over from when the Great Salt Lake was an ancient sea.

    What did Angel think of that visitor? That gull is bigger than she is!

      Sallie ~ she didn't see it but am sure she would have barked and chased it away ~ she is very protective of 'her' deck ~ Xo

    Great photo Carol! :) Just wanted to say...I've been going on hikes lately and I've seen so many painted rocks left on the trails. I never saw that where I used to live and I immediately thought of you! ♥
