Herring Gulls are large birds, not shy of humans, and easy to photograph. I saw the ones below on the shore of Chincoteague Bay on Assateague Island in Maryland. The younger ones were flying back and forth, while two adults stood and rested not far from where I was.

Thanks for the views….these birds are voracious and aggressive. I enjoy their antics, stealing from each other, during our beach walks.

Great pictures. Sometimes I think that seagulls are somewhat not frightened of humans because they are so used to them, like pigeons. Also, the photographs are wonderful

Thank you Jerry, and you are right about gulls. They only move away a little bit when you come too close.
