[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Usually gulls brood on stony beaches in a common noisy gathering.
This one - accompanied by its mate - has settled down in a tree top on The University Of Southern Denmark, right in the middle of the parking ground.
It is quite trusting despite some shrill screams to startle human beings passing by beneath.
I am wondering how to manage the chicks, when they come out...here is no space for running around.

Here is a wider shot to give a feeling of the nesting place.

Jan,
Perhaps this gull is having an identity crisis. The picture is great. The clarity is wonderful and picture is sharp. Nice work
Regards,
Kevin
