Seagull attack.
Very much enjoy the wider-angle close-ups you have managed, Anthony!  It is so unusual for wild birds, imaged full of presence, (hope that is apt definition, no other word comes to mind.)  I can see how this technique can work with aggressive sea gulls and eye level vantage.

Elsa, between your goose, the ostrich and Anthony's seagulls, I'm becoming very nervous!   :-\

John's and Anthony's seagulls are spectacular!
Usually birds are shot from distance with tele lenses, these I like in particular because of their vicinity.
Thanks Jakov.  They were so close (especially the one-legged) you could touch them. And it's shot at 35mm (With the 17-35)

Thanks, Eb, I was on a boat at the time, which made eye level access easier.

As for big birds, here are a couple of condors.  The first a female, is an uncropped image, the second, the male, is slightly cropped.  D3s and 70-300.
