Looks a fine photograph to me, there is a bit of mist which may not help. I would say the bird is sharp ish, I wonder how fast the autofocus is on your camera? Anyway, exposure time is right, to freeze movement, so all you need is practice.

Thank you so much. Its nice that people comment , but also help you out with a little advice.x
Given the bridge camera you are using Andrea this is damn spendid..(I had a bridge camera and never got close to a shot like this...I now have a dslr and lense that have really quick focus ability which makes life so much easier on the inflights)
I love the primaries of the gull splayed and showing real motion....the mist on the water really adds to it all.
I suggest you put it in the critique gallery and allow modifications and see what a little post processing can do on what is a fantastic capture.
All the Best
Paul
