There's a possibility too that this is a protest meeting John as those 'nautical pigeons' don't talk to each other at all. On the other hand you might be right as they seems to be in fully concentration as well for the dirt dropping match to come.
Feel so sorry for the stupid # 2, lol.
Not only a funny, but a surprising and good image as well.
Regards, Cornelius

Wow...how did you keep from scaring them away? Maybe you shot this from a distance. Whatever, I like it. The red fence is really eyecatching as well as the gulls. Very nice.

What a fantastic capture! The white birds on the red bridge are stunning and finding so many all posing like that for you is wonderful.

Hello John, I think this is great. Superb composure, and I've tried getting shots like this before but nothing this good. A nice bit of colour in the bridge too, great work.

Love this shot, the red on the bridge adds to much in contrast to the white birds. Nice job.

I love repeating subjects like these fellows. Their beaks match the rail so well! Wonderfully composed and a great eye to what makes a good photo... Excellent post John!

lol the intro is cute.... I think this is a great shot... i'm just wondering if their beaks were already the same colour of the railing or if that was edited...

They say it is all in the timing John.....hehe

This is almost stop-action photography! Love the contrast that their beaks and the fence makes with the white feathers! Good eye for that 'photographic moment'. Thank you for sharing this with me and congrats on making top new image on the front page! ;=)
