Karen Lawler, Seagull Standoff (ANIMALS 2021)

While out at Clovelly trying to get shots of the big swells on 29th May, instead I was entertained by a flock of seagulls frolicking in the puddles and gliding on the strong icy winds. At one point there seemed to have been a disagreement over puddle territory, resulting in a stand off. As much as people see Seagulls as annoying and scavengers, taking the time to watch them interact was eye opening.
