Observation details
I was kneeling in the sand on the beach trying to figure out if any of the big gull flock in front of me was worth photographing when the Marwit just flew in out of nowhere and landed right in front of me. Since I had already gained the trust of the gulls, the Marwit seemed to figure I must have been safe. With its quick threat assessment complete, the bird just started walking around at close range like I wasn't even there. Ridiculous. I love it when that happens.
