And as someone who finds pigeons "polluting" her laundry and patio to be the bane of her existance (my kids learned at a very early age to yell "get out of here you damn birds!") I wouldn't pay a wooden nickel to feed 'em, let alone tuppence!; 6/20/2009 2:33 PM

Maude Lynn said...: Yikes! A Hitchcock moment. A beautifully shot Hitchcock moment.; 6/20/2009 9:47 PM
Melli said...: Awww... I love seagulls -- but they DO get vicious once you start feeding them. I prefer to watch others on the beach feed them -- and hope they stay away from me! We had one come down and grab a sandwich right out of my granddaughter's HAND last year! She was almost 4 and it scared her to death! After that we taught her how to eat UNDER her towel! LOL!; 6/20/2009 10:37 PM

Julia Phillips Smith said...: I like the amount of sandy beach in the photo, with the action slightly far off. Very compelling framing.; 6/23/2009 11:11 AM
