I shouldn't get so early in the morning

Gulls are . . . gulls. Early in the morning, in full shade I took these two consecutive shots of the same gulls. The first appears to have a damaged wing, yet the same wing appears perfectly formed in the second shot. Yes it's too grainy. Yes, the ISO was to high (auto ISO unchecked) F22 1/1000th in shade got a clear shot, except for that right wing. Any idea what else went wrong?

Nothing. Normal flexibility of a bird wing. Not camera/lens/setting related.

If you're asking about the apparent wing differences in the two shots, then I agree with Rongnongno. The dynamics of riffed feathers in fast action often goes unseen, until captured by a fast shutter speed.
Especially gulls are among the best acrobats as they find and battle for mates and food.
By the way, the second gull is named Jonathan.
