“下午飛翔 Afternoon Flight” / 寧 Serenity / SML.20130317.7D.35160.P1.L1.BW

So after more research it appears that these are not a seagulls but in fact Asian Waterbirds. Apparently, they are under WWF protection and is a rare species—but I see them all the time outside the window.

 

Also noted: I definitely need a longer lens. But it is good because I never really got to use my 70-200 til I moved back to Hong Kong.

 

Some captures are impossible to process inside Lightroom, so this was done in Photoshop.
