Rotate!

I must be nuts!! Frozen stiff I watched this gull preening itself on the post, figured in no time it will leap off aloft, so I kept it in the viewfinder..and kept it and KEPT IT, five frozen minutes later, it DID leap off and how useful is the continuous focus setting...brilliant! Lord knows how many times I've tried to get a decent sharp image of one, wings extended, managed it at last! I did get a lot of static ones of course but they don't compare with this:)
