Also from Cape May: a great egret and a snowy egret, a pair of mute swans, six ospreys (I didn't know that they flocked!), and four great black-backed gulls, two adults flanking two younger birds (a family?).

As the Cape May-Lewes Ferry approached Lewes yesterday, a large number of gulls were following the boat.As the Cape May-Lewes Ferry approached Lewes yesterday, a large number of gulls were following the boat. I'm not sure why—drafting? Discarded food? Fish, etc., churned up by the boat? Anyway, that isn't the point of this post. Rather, I'm curious which of these two photos people like better. They're identical except for the post-processing: the first is more naturalistic; the second is more artistic. Poll in the next post.
