THIS IS A SCREEN CAPTURE OF THE VIDEO I WAS TAKING AT THE TIME. I paused the video on this frame, did a screen capture, imported into photoshop, saved it as a jpg, and uploaded it here.View attachment 172938
Nice! I live by the ocean and t here are similar amounts here in Canada. Heres one of my examples and it almost looks photoshopped. Thousands of them and they are loud, proud and very few predators.

Thanks everyone for liking my photo. I thought the colors and contrast really made this photo stand out.
 
That is the last thing you should be doing, disturbing a roosting flock of gulls and terns and causing them to fly off in a panic just for a pretty picture and/or video. Birds need to rest in between feeding and should be left in peace.

Exactly what a Karen and Ken said to me after it happened. I DIDN'T DO IT PURPOSELY. I could see me drone in the air from where I was standing, but I couldn't see the birds at ground level, until they took off under the drone. I had my video recorder on and That is what it captured.

P.S. You otta see how often dogs cause those birds to take off in a panic. Drone 1 dogs 20.
