Mostly Silver Gulls







The salt water creek was too muddy to see into, so the gulls sought puddles to observe their reflections.

It's amazing how an overcast day can enrich the greens and coppers in a photo. Very nice. The moon is rising under the gulls? What a strange world reflections live in; an ibis trans-morphs into reverse moon, and the silver gulls get somewhat legless, and the dish ran away with the spoon.

Wow! The first photograph looks like a photo shoot of model birds, as if a photographer instructed them where to stand and look. It' very artistic. I am awed by so many bird species you have featured in your blog.

Perfect lighting for photographing oil paintings should one feel inclined G3TFilms! You have managed to further bend anthropomorphic objects in the reverse mirror direction of reflection! What 'special' memories you have to look back on :P

They are pin-up birds Ces! I try to not yell or they become flighty. Once the pool party finally ends there will be lots of new surprises posing!

I think you may have uncovered something here Anon. The gulls look like Bodygulls to me. That Ibis must be a VIP of some kind...


I love the way the second Ibis is walking by in that final photograph

"Dumdee Dum Dee Dumdee Dee"

Happy gulls! I love them -- we say my Nana is a gull now. :) And that ibis is awesome -- what a bill!

Just hang onto your hot chips!

Bodygulls Miladysa!?! I'm lucky I didn't have my eyes pecked out!! The second must have been jealous of the limelight (of the grass) and strutted her stuff for the camera!

Happy ancestors Melissa! Wonder who is related to the Ibis with a bill like that!

HAHHHAAAAA! Your two favourites Baino ;)
