Salinas de San Pedro - 19.9.18
As I drive along the far end of the salinas near the salt plant there's some great diffused light and with the lack of wind is producing some nice reflection in the water. As usual a group of about thirty Audouins Gulls are sat about on the salt pan banking so worthy a try for some images, but first I have park the car all the way back down the road as there's no parking available at this location.
Having parked up and made the long walk back I'm now back near to where the gulls are located but on the adjacent salt pan there's some Greater Flamingoes further out in the pan so out comes the "big white", one flamingo is doing a bit feather maintenance and with nice water reflection looks a good shot so I'm happy to spend a little time with theses San Pedro residents.
Moving further on to where the gulls are located, as I approach they ain't too happy and move further away into the salt pan, surprising really as a few minuets earlier a couple of joggers and a cyclist had just passed without the gulls being at all bothered. I get some not particularly good shots, but it's been a quiet morning and some times you just have to make do with what's on offer.
The images of the Slender Bill Gull were taken when I first arrived this morning at the first pull in just as the sun was rising.
