It is officially spring here on the Eastern Shore. The Laughing Gulls have returned. And boy, are they a noisy bunch! (You can listen to them here. It’s a video I took two years ago from the same field.)
Not quite wordless Wednesday

Wonderful action shots of the gulls. I played the video for my cats–their ears went up, but they’re more interested in getting dinner right now. 🙂

Thank you, Merril. 🙂 My cats came running every time I turned on a video with the sound of the gulls, but don’t get too close since the birds are so noisy.

The gulls – and ducks are cavorting pretty wildly and happily here, too. (Almost had a fast flying cardinal on a mission crash into me this morning on dog walk)
There’s nothing louder and more happy than a flock of gulls flapping around (but not over) you.
Nice pictures

Gotta watch out for those birds on spring missions, PhilosopherMouse. I nearly had a run-in with one, too.
Thank you. 🙂 And so true about the birds being over me. What a mess that can be!

They are a noisy bunch, and I thought Canada geese were talkative~ 😉

Oh, Canada Geese are downright quiet compared to this group, Eliza. lol! Even the video doesn’t express how noisy they can be, or the layers of noise they make when they’re making different sounds. It’s almost otherworldly at times. 🙂

Seagulls can be very noisy, but they make for some great photos as you show here. Love how you have captured them in action.

Thank you so much, Otto. 🙂 Seagulls do cooperate more when it comes to photographing birds.
