Clyde Estuary

I was lucky enough to capture a seagull reasonably close, with wings outstretched, in silhouette against the setting sun. This is today's blip as the two together usually elude me. I can see three birds in this picture. The first extra picture shows a wider perspective, looking westwards towards the Firth of Clyde. The second is one I took earlier en route approaching the Baird Avenue footbridge as a swan family headed for their night quarters. It has a soft painterly quality.
