    So enjoyed the recent postings, Matt.
    The butterflies, moths and wild orchids (which have captured the interest of one of my nieces) photos are real bonuses. But the main reason for this comment is the photo that heads-up your Tues.June 27th ; it is superb. The Mediterranean Gull's markings/colours are so sharp. The background shades of blue to grey at the time - perfect.
    Thank you for choosing that photo.
