Today was one of those perfect days on the gulf coast. Bright sunshine this morning so we headed straight to the beach and enjoyed the waves. After about two hours the clouds started to roll in so it was off to the grocery store to replenish the freezer. We got spoiled in Florida with the local grocery stores stocking high quality meat. The same is not true here. We visited two stores and finally just bought some chicken to BBQ.
After lunch the sun came back and we returned to the beach. While we sat and watched the locals surfing and using boogie boards we saw something we have never seen before. We have been on beaches along the east and west coast, beaches throughout the Caribbean and have been coming to Gulf Shores for nearly 30 years but never did we have any idea where all these damn seagulls come from. Now we know. There were two seagulls right next to us squawking in unison for several minutes. We started to watch them to see what was going on and one of the local guys near us also stopped to watch. The larger of the two hopped up on the back of the other one and kept squawking while trying to keep his balance. At this point we still didn't know what this was all about but amusing just the same. All of a sudden there were conjoined seagulls right there on the beach. Of all the times not to have a camera, this would certainly have been the picture of the season! Diane swears I'm wrong but I'm certain I saw a smile on the face of the one and a slight swagger in his step. The local guy told me that he had never seen this in his life. This is something you might want to think about at the beach cabana when the bartender asks if you want a sex on the beach.
