Linking up with NF Winged and Skywatch Friday
I am so glad you stopped by, I am taking you back to Key West for a pretty sunset. It was our 2nd night in Key West and this time we watched the sunset from the famous Mallery Square. For NF Winged I am sharing all the gulls we saw around Mallory Square in Key West.

I had fun watching a huge flock of Laughing Gulls.

While we were watching the sunset from Mallory Square, we also watched this catamaran pull up in front of the sun go past a little and then back up and stopped right in front of the setting sun. So our view of the sun was blocked some by the boat. The folks on board got the best view.

The flock of gulls would take off and fly, while we were watching the sunset.

These gulls and a terns were catching some of the sun's rays.

Mallory Square was fun for a one time visit. We did enjoy the sunset but there are a lot of sunset spots along Florida's west coast.
Thanks for visiting my blog and I always appreciate your comments.
Happy Skywatching to everyone!

Quite the sunset sights . . . even if you were blocked a bit! A safe and happy weekend to you too . . .
Beautiful golden sunset!
That is a magnificent sunset. Glorious shots.
Beautiful sky! I love the sailboats in the background! The whole open ocean and they wanna park their boat right in front of the sun! LOL!
the 3rd shot is just marvelous!
Wow, what a great variety of gulls. The sunset is wonderful, love the sailboats.
The shots of the sunset are AMAZING! Lode the one with the huge orange orb behind the boat. Looks like a magnificent outing. Thank you for sharing it!
Gorgeous sunsets! Always enjoy watching the birds soak up the day's end.
Spectacular sunset. Love those color shades.
Gorgeous sunset, Eileen. You are right. There are many places along the FL coast to see that beauty... BUT--I loved seeing the boats in your photos. They just enhanced the beautiful sky...
Great birds also.
Hugs,
Betsy
KInda' selfish of the catamaran, but it actually made a lovely focal point in front of that perfect sunset. Mallery Square at sunset is definitely a must-see for everybody (once, anyway ;>))
That is a lot of gulls! They are really cute :) I love your sunset shots, especially the one where the boat got in the way. Made for a really neat shot!
Hi Eileen!! Great shots of the gulls, they can be so loud when they all start screeching at the same time.
Stunning sunset shots, too!!!
Wonderful series! Gulls are so much fun to watch. The sunset shots are gorgeous.
Beautiful photos.
The gulls have a great view... Michelle
These are great photos of the sunset -- and the gulls. I don't think I've seen so many flying around at one place as in your sunset pictures. I'm sorry the catamaran stopped in front of the sun, but the sailboat silhouette is pretty neat.
Great post for the theme!
Happy SWF to you!
Awesome sunset shots!
I can never get tired of that sunset view! It just takes your breath away.
Sunsets and gulls ... a photographers delight. Hoping you have a lovely week-end Eileen with lots of photo opportunities.
Lovely shots of the gulls and the sunset!
The two shots of the sunset with the sailboats are stunning!
Have a great weekend Eileen!
Magnificent sunset shots and love the birds too! ^_^
I like seagulls a lot.
I loved Key West. My cousin had a lovely home on one of the canals with a boat and it was such fun. Your pictures are so pretty. The one of the gull in flight is super. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Spring is finally here with a bit of sumer thrown in for good luck. genie
Wow - what a stunning sunset! and great captures of birds on the wing. Thanks for sharing your part of the world, Eileen.
Great shots Eileen. The setting sun is fabulous.
gorgeous shots with those sailboats, WoW, what an amazing view!!
Beautiful evening you captured in Key West! Love the shots with the silhouettes of the boats in the setting sun.
That is a great sunset framed! And I can imagine the cacophony there with all those birds.
Great sunset shots.
Lovely sunsets! And the close-up shot of the birds is fun to see.
Gorgeous sunset shots!!
Fantastic photos,Eileen!Thank you for it and enjoy your weekend!
Yes, lovely light with exquisite colors, wonderful setting sun!
What a sunset viewing! Great Weekend!
Love the sunsets over Mallory Square, precious.
a catamaran at sunset--a perfect image! what a great time to be out at sea. lovely photos.
Awesome series, Eileen. Thanks for sharing those beauties. A perfect place to enjoy sunset!

A wonderful and special light. Beautiful Sunset and birds.
I wish you a sunny weekend, Eileen. Best regards, Synnöve
Wow, Eileen, what a stunning sunset! Also love the pic with the birds fluttering around, but then... I love 'em all:)
Beautiful shots! Happy sky watching.
My sky.
Gorgeous captures all!!!
Gorgeous sky pictures ! and I love the seagulls, laughing or not, lol ! They always remind me holidays !!
Amazing shots of the sunset, particularly when blocked by the boats creating wonderful silhouette photos!
Love them and that you have and the ability to publish the transition so that the sun remains brilliant!
Beautiful sky photos and such lovely, lovely colors!
love those sunset shots with boats around.
Great sunsets there - too bad you didn't get the horizon horizontal.
Perhaps you could use a simple software to straighten up your photos. They're worth it, they're really great! I hope you don't mind my comment but I believe we're also here to help each other improve our photography skills.
amazing shots. I especially love the one where the sun is almost half way down, sinking into the ocean.
All those gulls made for some good birding Eileen. Lovely sunset shot and I don't think the other boat spoiled your picture but simply added to the effect. have a great weekend.
what a beautiful beautiful sunset it is
oh my word eileen, you take the most beautiful shots of birds!
and the sunsets are equally lovely as well.
happy weekend~
Oh, WOW! These photos almost make me want to head to Florida right away!
Fantastic skies from Key West. I have family there so your shots make me feel close to them.
Oh wow, I always love to see your photos Eileen. These are fantastic, which is what I always know I will see when I visit your blog. Have a great weekend :)
Such beautiful sunset shots, Wow!!
What a beautiful series Eileen, I love them all but if I had to pick a favorite it'd be the red sun behind the boat. Ah, the wonder of this world.
We have a weekly linky party if you care to join us and share the beauty of your world, it's at:

The gulls certainly love this area as a meeting place! So many of them! And your sunset colours are simply magical! Great series of photos!
It is interesting to see all of the different kinds of gulls together. I love your sunset photos Eileen, especially the ones with the boats.
Happy Weekend!
Sunset is always such a beautiful time of the day for photos and yours are just lovely! The birds are really awesome.
I didn't know you went to Key West!. Great silhouettes!
WOW!!!Those sunset shots are awesome!!Have a great weekend!

That's a lot of gulls!!! I especially love the one with the gulls flying around the boat. Really beautiful. Are those Bonaparte's?
