I had a great time this Spring, watching and photographing a family of Mew Gulls. The new chicks were quite lively and provided lots of entertainment and fun photos. This is one of my favorites of one of the chicks as it was investigating a rather large stick (for it’s size).

That is just cool!
I’ve never seen anything like this.
I bet this would make a great greeting card with various captions.
In addition to your title, maybe something like: “Who you callin’ little?..and umm, what does Cute mean?”.
(Obviously there’s a reason I didn’t go into advertising as a career!)
Cute and sweet!! It does have a compelling look – some sort of definite intent that only it knows about. (Remember when we were all kids building forts???) Well done!
Only tiny suggestion is that I might clone out the two OOF things in the upper BG.
As everyone already said, this is so adorable! You’ve captured a unique sighting, Gary. And at the same time it’s a perfect, action packed composition. Just beautiful.
