The weekly canal walk had to be moved to Thursday - the gulls are hungry (Gulls always are) but these have started "mobbing" people who cross the canal bridge. At least we haven't got the avian flu around Hannover yet - but in the North quite a few swans , geese and ducks have already died - and one cat. So, it is transferrable to mammals. http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/MG_3569_edited_4 Cropped out of an otherwise pretty bad shot, I personally like the sharpness of the eye and beak and the soft effect on the fast moving wingtips http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/MG_3574_edited_2 Did it before - on the other bank, but I still like the diagonals http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/MG_3575_edited_2 The other walk along the canalside http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/MG_3586_edited_2 Barge/Bow wave http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/MG_3571_edited_2 Nearly too close for comfort Douglas Technical stuff: Canon 20D, 2,8/135mm (Zeiss) ISO 800
