  2. Gulls are quite good to practice on for flying shots, especially if they are flying against the wind..It also gets you used to taking pictures of white birds against darker backgrounds, to test light settings etc..White is so easy to blow out so you are left with no detail..but, practice makes perfect, and you are certainly practicing...
