Gull-ty of Being Perfectly Patriotic

This majestic seagull struck the most patriotic pose imaginable during my Golden Gate Bridge boat tour return journey! Standing proud beneath that wind-whipped American flag, this feathered photobomber perfectly embodies San Francisco Bay attitude - confident, slightly cocky, and totally unbothered by tourist cameras. The timing couldn't be more perfect as both bird and banner catch the afternoon breeze while Marin County hills roll dramatically across the water. That deep blue November sky creates stunning contrast against the red, white, and blue fabric dancing overhead. My iPhone SE captured this serendipitous moment of avian patriotism that feels almost too perfectly composed to be accidental!
