the best sound ever: seagulls walking on pavement.
they always seem so grave and determined, i can only imagine they are annoyed by the sound of their own footfalls as their little webbed feet slap slap slap along.

What a pleasant post!. We had a herring gull at Caribou Island who was hanging around solemnly, ready to opportunely get a handout. And the gull was gravely intent on surviving some kind of ailment that (s)he was afflicted with. Difficulty walking and somehow estranged from its own kind.
ReplyDeleteSome cynics refer to gulls as "flying rats", but I tend to see them as more multi-faceted and quite beautiful in their wild environment.
