Seems like all the best places are taken. A fun and interesting image, Judy.

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks, Michael.

Barbara from Florida, United States

Guess the early bird gets the prime spot. I like the line up of the birds and pilings. Great angle and fun capture.

@Barbara: Thanks, Barb.

Betty from New Jersey, United States

Too funny the way they are lined up... nice one, Judy!

@Betty: Thank you, Betty.

Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada

Fabulous, should be on a postcard on every tropical countries, I'd get it ;)

@Lorraine: The joke is that New Jersey isn't "tropical" - closer to Canada than to Florida! ;D

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

Very nice. I like seeing gulls perched on these pilings. Down here they've begun putting these pointy plastic cones on the piling tops to discourage gulls and pelicans from perching on them. I think there will be a law of unintended consequences that will kick in; the gulls will find somewhere else to perch and it may be less desirable than pilings by the water.

@Viewfinder: I agree; gulls, water and piling combine into a natural element - 'kick 'em out' and they'll land elsewhere. ;D

Evi from Athens, Greece

Beautiful!

leslie from norwich, United Kingdom

Well taken i like the way the gulls on posts are all looking one way

15 Aug 2008 2:37pm

@leslie: Thanks, Leslie ... tomorrow is a different version and they're not looking the same way. ;D

tyan from Singapore, Singapore

i find it so hilarious that all of them are looking in a certain direction,like a few drunken men ready to jump into the water!:)

@tyan: You're funny ... but absolutely correct! ;D ... Tomorrow is another view - and different.

Are you and the boys feeling better? I hope so!

Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

The gathering of the gulls and you know how much I love gull pictures. I'm not sure what it is about them that I love, the togetherness, their constant movement and noise, but I do love them. This is a great shot.

15 Aug 2008 8:02pm

@Marion: I love seeing them too - and you'll enjoy tomorrow's shot as well.
God made gulls as well as cardinals and peacocks, right? xx
