The squawky one in front seems to be giving the orders and the following red-beaks do not look too impressed :)
Thank you for looking, comments always welcome and appreciated

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

They are Red-billed gulls (Larus novaehollandiae) native to New Zealand :) Tarapunga in Maori

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Lyn, think they're waiting for the control tower to get permission for take-off. Think too that the 'squawky one' is the 'wing leader/commander', ☺ !

Precious shot. Seen and captured very well, my friend.

You only need to say "shoo" and they are off. The shouting "sergeant" has not made any impression on the others. Nice image.

The clarity, detail, light, grass, water are captured perfectly. Your photo is inspiring, a lot of talent there. Don't know how you manage to get them at just the right time, and there is no blurring??? You have a steady hand and a good eye!

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

This is great! I like the green grass and rushing water as a backdrop. The leader is leading the way...but there is one gull in the back who is not listening to instructions! lol
