The goal was a trip to the beach and Jetty Park, just a hop-skip south of the shuttle launch pads, was chosen to get the kids out into the outdoors. Heat be damned.
As we hauled the beach gear down to the beach early in the morning, I noticed a very large gull down by the waves. Camera always in tow, I excused myself to make sure I could record what ever it was before 'trying' to relax for the rest of the day.
Happily, it turned out to be the suspected species it was. A juvenile Great Black-backed Gull!
Other birds made appearances throughout the morning but this bird made the day a total joy. Spending time with the family was good too!
Gorgeous bird.
