Bird Watching: "On the Waterfront" - Part 4, 1 by linthicum

Several weeks ago, I was entertained "on the waterfront" by a pair of sea gulls. I suppose you could call it the Cirque du Soleil of the bird world. I was mesmerized with their aerial antics, for several minutes, and they did it for just one spectator, me. I refer to one of them as Groucho. For those with a little age, you will know what I mean. I assume that the other gull was one of the other Marx brothers.
He sorta looked like Harpo.

It all started out on the ice "rink" when I observed Groucho playing with a corn cob. He picked it up in his beak and kept twirling it around, never allowing it to hit the ice.
