Eye Contact

In case you think birds don't notice you on the beach, here's a laughing gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) that locked eyes with me yesterday as it flew past while I captured its photo.

"The oldest known Laughing Gull was at least 22 years old when it was killed in Maine in 2009, the same state where it had been banded in 1987." - allaboutbirds.org
