Black-legged Kittiwake - our best gull

First cycle Black-legged Kittiwake on American side of Canadian Falls. It slept a lot, lifting its head briefly. Spotted by Alvaro Jaramillo. 30 December 2015.

 

Then it stood and turned around and repositioned itself. Photo quality caused by distance and looking through mist and moisture from the Canadian Falls. 30 December 2015.
