Avian Celebration


What a raucous place the beach was just before dawn!  The gulls were wheeling about and screeching louder than I have ever heard before.  Granted, the sky was flooded with predawn light, and it was low tide.  Mussel beds were exposed, and I presume fish were visible to the gulls from their vantage point in the sky.  I was reasoning all this out to explain the extreme volume of sound when it occurred to me that it was the day before Ash Wednesday.  That’s it!  I was an observer of the seagull parade for Mardi Craw!!!!!
