10. And the little black "caps" they seem to be wearing!

The 2 on the left look like they might be plotting something. If I were the guy on the right, I'd give them a wide berth!

Seriously, though, what a great photo!

8. Thank you for the good tern.......photo.

I was a surveyor on the gulf coast once, long ago. Often I'd be fucussing my instrument and find myself lookin at these guys and their friends, pelicans, Sandhill cranes, snow and Canada geese and even the occasional pink island filled with flamingos.
