Field Notes

Notes:

large flock was roosting on the beach this was early in the morning so they were getting ready to go. we saw them pick up sticks and toss them around i really wanted this one shot with one playing with a rubber band. ( i picked up the plastic around their roost so they wouldn't swallow it.)
