It's been awhile since I've done birds-in-flight, off I went to Valenzuela to see the Gulls which Edu discovered in one of the fishponds in that place now called Solomon's Place. Many thanks to Edu for guiding us to this wonderful place. Here's some of my captures. Black-headed Gull (Chroicocephalus ridibundus), Solomon's Place, 12/17/2010 50D + EF500, f6.3, 1/2000, Manual Exposure, Handheld  50D + EF500, f7.1, 1/1250, Manual Exposure, Handheld  50D + EF500, f7.1, 1/1250, Manual Exposure, Handheld  |

Here's another one where you can compare the sizes of the two birds in that place. You can easily tell that the Gull is a lot bigger than the Tern.  |

ah that reminds me of how I found them..
I was chasing a flying Black Bittern, trying to find where it perches when I saw a "tern" land on the water and started to wade. HAHAHAHAHAA!!! Turned out to be gulls.
This is a one in a million shot sir!

Thanks Edu, good thing you found them. I think the small Tern here is trying to bully the Gull to get its perch.  |
