Nice photos! These are particularly interesting as the only one that shows up in North America is the Herring Gull. The Rook looks to be a very interesting bird.
We see same birds , huh.I have a pair of kites nesting very close, on a hotel roof, but to high for a decent shot, erm. I will go maybe tomorrow to see some beeaters inland.
Thank you all for your comments. Elaine and Kelly: The Rook is common here in Britain. It's beak always looks false to me - like it's been stuck on! It is apparently very clever, using tools etc (stones I believe - not power tools!).

Nice one of the Red Kite Jim; getting a few round here recently.
Second one of the Herring Gull is a great capture, frozen the wings perfectly.

...beautiful photos. I've never seen a Rook in person--love that bill! Lovely flight photos...of the gulls and the kite.
Nice set of photos, I especially like the second one.
