Great post Richard! You can live on that Island and share a weekly notebook of the goings on, of all you see! Would love that! As to Seagull watching, we have many types around the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state. My best perch for watching is at a transit center by an open harbor where each year 30-50 of one of the bigger seagulls have nests on an old auto repair garage. One does have to be prepared for a little cannibalism of the weak birds which gets terribly rough and rowdy. Even so, to listen to the adults out over the harbor on the extremely high light standards is a wonderful show! All vying for ownership of their favorite spot and 'crowing' when they have secured it from a young challenger!

Rough and Rowdy - I know what you mean
Loved the rainy day pics.
