For some reason I thought that they were, but they don't look it in the photos you posted!<BR/><BR/>Both the seagull + duck images are wonderful.<BR/>We see families of ducks here (in the counrty/valley of NSW, Australia - 30 mins from the coast), and the families are so adorable!! Only thing that makes me sad is that the next time you see the family, they are one or more ducklings short of the original clan. :( <BR/>People need to realize that the ducks try and cross the road, and slow down for them... ducks can't change their behaviour, but we can change ours!!Manzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07138779660585387695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187067530460656289.post-77507414650064818942009-01-21T19:17:00.000-08:002009-01-21T19:17:00.000-08:00I thoroughly enjoyed your photos and commentary he...I thoroughly enjoyed your photos and commentary here. I live near the ocean and see pelicans, seagulls, and other birds too. I shared a pelican collage for Camera Critters a while back at Small Reflections.

Just fascinating. But, they have never let me get close enough to take great pictures like these.

That intrigued me because we live on the banks of a large river in Western Massachusetts and there are plenty of mallards and geese around. I've taken many photos but I've never seen the mallards fight. <BR/><BR/>This is a great post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296223961815248113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187067530460656289.post-91819719883707152662009-01-17T12:44:00.000-08:002009-01-17T12:44:00.000-08:00Great shots!Great shots!Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14269361197256092583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187067530460656289.post-51933337280274396172009-01-17T10:55:00.000-08:002009-01-17T10:55:00.000-08:00i love the photos!i love the photos!ratmammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13282559387714689978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187067530460656289.post-76517303185983222912009-01-17T10:10:00.000-08:002009-01-17T10:10:00.000-08:00I love watching seagulls.
