I enjoy watching gulls (cf my local patches page) and I've sometimes grabbed a few images of interesting birds, usually using a 35mm camera directly through my scope. As can been seen from the pictures, I'm no photography expert and they are more 'record' shots than photographs. Click on an image for a bigger shot.
There are a load of excellent sites for the gull enthusiast, full of information and professional quality photos, as listed here:

Record shot of the Banff Bay Kumlien's Gull
This individual was recorded in Banff Bay, NE Scotland between 1981 and 1987. It was one of the first regular UK birds. I obtained these record shots on 25 March 1985.
