Travel Tips

I loved this smarty bird in New Orleans, LA (USA)... he/she really seems in 'The Big Easy' mood.

After I put this first pic on VT, I received comments and pics of nice seagulls around the world, and I felt it was nice to collect them in a dedicated page, the page of the new Pretty Seagull's Club!

I had fun in building this page, as much as I hope you did while checking out. If you like to see 'your' seagull in the club, just let me know.

Thanks you all, and have a good flight!

Not that becoming a member it's easy at all. A severe commission evaluate the candidates from all over the world.

And Cathy was great in getting one rare pictures of the commission at work.

Here is one of the nice Irish representatives and friends you can find on the page from dear Laurie-Jeanne.

Right in front of a beautiful view of Cork. Is he/she just thinking how lucky is or just ready to jump in that beautiful sky?

While seagulls are mostly found on seasides, few members have also felt the desire to enjoy a more urban lifestyle, like this gentle one from Elena.

He/she appears pretty comfortable with the view from the roof over beautiful Stockholm.

If thinking of seagulls we think of flying, that is even more true for the Club members. Like the novel and beautiful Jonathan Livingston that Roelien got with her camera in Amsterdam!

Is he/she trying to fly closer to the next heaven right now?

Practice, practice, practice. That is needed for everything, and even more for flying at top level. Luckyly, being "downunder" does not always make it more difficult, and Carole's friend seems exactly at the moment of the big question: "Should I jump?".

Well, I guess he/she will find out that jumping in a new situation might be often a good thing, after all.

The reward to so many efforts is however great. Flying like nobody else up to the physical limits and more. Just admire the style of this seagull from Bruno.

It might be because of the strong winds in Bretagne, but one can recognize a French seagull in action!

Once admitted, it has to be said that members develop their ego a bit and sometimes become more exhibitionist, but they are still lovely. Indeed, I just received a card from Niagara Falls where Roelien discovered her last posing 'star'.

Right in the myst, he/she seems wondering why those funny tourists are getting wet without an appropriate plumage.
