    The Drummond hydro mini-dam on the Magog river is my favorite spot for waterfowl birds. The afternoon was beautyful and didn't feel like hiking so I sat at a picknick table and spent an hour enjoying the moment and learn about the way the different birds manage to live their day all together. Out of many, this shot of a ring-billed gull. (taken oct 2024)

    I love how the gull is perfectly framed by those beautiful wings and tail feathers. Very nice focus and detail on a terrific action capture, Yves.

    Very nice focus on this action shot Yves. I love the wing position and the seagulls attention sideways. Captured beautifully.

    Great focus for an action shot, Yves. Not easy to do. Well done.

    Nice action shot Yves. It is always nice to sometimes just sit and let whatever happens some to you.
