Watchful Gull on the Edge
Perched at the water’s edge, the gull keeps silent watch.
Quiet sentinel, bathed in sunlight, gazing out to sea.
This photograph depicts a seagull perched on a sunlit rock, gazing over the sea below. Its calm stance conveys both the resilience and quiet vigilance of seabirds that inhabit the rugged coastlines.
Taken Sep. 16, 2025 on Whitehead Cliffs, Monhegan Island
I felt a bit of kinship with this little guy as we were both sitting on the edge of Whitehead Cliffs admiring the view. There is in fact a 160 foot drop on the other side of that rock.
