Urban Birds...

...and a dash of optimism.

The photos are a bit grainy because I had digital zoom on for some of them.

I don't get to see black-backed gulls all that often - I think, from the deep black, that this is a Greater rather than a lesser.



I notice that some of the black-headed gulls are getting their summer plumage in already and starting to justify their name!



Cormorant, grooming.


On the chimney top of a house near the IMMA (Irish Museum of Modern Art).


Outside a café just before my bus-stop in town. Spring?? It might have been sunny, but it's still pretty darn cold.

Time to scare winter away - maybe that's what the sign will do. Love those gulls and the chimney bird is pretty cool.
