red billed and ready to grab the smallest morsel
caught in flight landing wings high and forward
tipped black and white ends
coming in for landing
body at 45 degrees red legs forward and down
red bill parallel light grey wings back
they flock and fight over every crumb
opportunists everyone
captured in flight like fallen angels
scavenging from humans
a different bird different landing technique
body almost horizontal wings near vertical
red legs limp red bill pointing down
more than a dozen they amass a squawk and squeak
comedians with wings feathers all a fluff
final shot front on landing
wings illuminated looking ethereal
