I headed out to a spot in Naperville where I like to go to at lunchtime to enjoy the weather. I hoped to be able to catch an interesting bird shot. I liked this one because the Seagull was coming in for a landing and had its tail feathers spread open to slow the flight down and the sunlight highlighted that quite nicely. It was taken at noontime on The Lake Walk at Lake Osborne, off Aurora Ave.
