Corn Chips And Fur Coats

Most of today was spent burning my skin on Venice Beach.  I momentarily fed the seagulls and occasionally scanned the open ocean, but mostly I had a very non-birdy day.

This Heermann's Gull was brave enough to come near my towel for a bite of corn chips.

This man wasn't interested in corn chips, but he did sport a very impressive fur coat.  I thought it noteworthy enough to snap a photo.
