I took some time during lunch for a walk down to Lakeshore State Park earlier
today. The posting's title was befitting.
Gulls:
Lots of gulls out in the harbor and in the interior water of Lakeshore State
Park. A portion of the south end was thinly layered with ice. A handful of
guys were fishing along the shore since there was no ice immediately along the
water's edge.
Amongst the gulls, I found one that was rather photogenic, resting on a small
rock. I experimented with framing by the shoreline rocks.

Geese:
The geese were also plentiful. They dominated the rocks behind the Art Museum
and immediately south. The interior water of Lakeshore State Park also had
quite a few geese.
Ducks:
Lots of usual winter ducks: Mallards, Mergansers, Scaup, Goldeneye, and
Bufflehead.
Greater Scaup:
