[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
If you didn't know already, or if you've ever read 'Jonathan Livingstone Seagul' by Richard Bach - you would know that seaguls know something we don't know.

In this instance they are saying amongst themselves things like, "Bob, this is an unusually high tide", "Yes, I've never seen one as high as this before", and, "I'm glad that I didn't park my car here", or, "You don't even have a car Matthew".

These chaps are just hanging on a barrier that isn't usually so close to the water during an exceptionally high tide as this. I wonder what they're thinking ...

Thanks for looking, TW

Excellent Tim.
The simple composition, the warm light and the well picked DOF really draws my eyes right to the birds and gives great depth to the image.
TFS,

Nicely done. Excellent DOF to keep just the birds sharp. Your write up sounds like a Python script.
