Hi, Ed! @tengolotodo What a truly awesome post! First off, thank you for tagging #alwaysaflower! I am honored and I love your choice! I love the red ones right outside of my door, but, like you, I will take any of them! I love them all!
Ok, I cheated! I fixed it up with a little bit of editing.
Seagulls are not protected here, there are far too many, but, I do love the little cheeky pests. I sometimes take something down by the water to feed them. No ducks as it is seawater. I need to go to my lake for that. The geese and mallards have been prolific this year!
My favorite is the swans, wait! No! The Magpie! I don't really see them much here in the Washington, DC area, but, I did in Canada and Maine/New Hampshire, although it is said they are here.
A wonderfully informative, interesting, and fun post! Good luck!
Hive on, my friend!
