Thank you... I rarely see so many as they typically fly in flocks of 4 or 5 floating over the waves.

You are right about that write up. If we want fly, we must do away with whatever that may pull us down

It was something I haven't seem and as you know, I'm always watching sunsets.... just the number of them was a surprise.

Greetings @armentor,

What lovely picturesque splendid photographs you have presented here.

The quote applies itself easily to the photographs and sets the reader to thinking.

All the best. ^__^

Cheers!
