It's a good thing this colony was protected by the locals who stood up and protested against the council's plans for a cruise ship terminal there.Michael S-Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17626586348382568857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7316680261033632031.post-68978768177742383252014-06-01T19:11:47.937+10:002014-06-01T19:11:47.937+10:00They are great birds - and a little more cooperati...They are great birds - and a little more cooperative than many as well!<br /><br />Cheers - Stewart M - Melbourne Stewart Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04622420206244603688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7316680261033632031.post-89699568696282226132014-05-31T16:17:24.152+10:002014-05-31T16:17:24.152+10:00Beautiful photos!

I find it interesting to compare their body proportions with that of a gull and then think about the lifestyle differences that arise from that.<br /><br />I love the shallow field of focus in those flock photos that really single out that preening bird.
