This is a Black-headed gull (like Kehaar; hence the title!) flying over the River Severn in Bewdley, which was in flood at the time. These gulls don't actually have a black head in winter plumage, before anyone asks the obvious question!
Weather conditions were poor, with not much light, so for a fast enough shutter speed at full telephoto (12x) I had to use ISO 400, and on an S2 that results in pretty noisy images. Still, I think the focus, colour and detail are okay, so on the whole I'm quite pleased with this picture.
