I took this picture of a seagull trying to be an airplane recently while I was at the Quonset Point RI airshow. I thought it was a great shot, (actually a lucky shot  Grin )

Hehe. Excellent. Cheesy

I love birds but sometimes they're a blasted nuisance. Spoiled some of my best shots. Angry Wink

Normally, I would agree with ya, but in this case, my fine feathered friend MADE the shot  Grin

And if weren't for birds, humans would likely never have thought of flying... Grin
I could sit for hours watching almost any kind of bird do its thing. They are all excellent  aviators... Smiley
