See-Gulls

One seriously large seagull has been hanging around the Dumpster in the parking lot of my work. He waits until people from the Thai or Sushi restaurant nearby drop off their trash, and then he hooks his beak into his next snack. Well, today he brought a friend by the office. The two of them have been strolling around the parking lot together, waddling side by side. And every few minutes, they start squawking because GASP! they see TWO more seagulls invading their territory. What the seagulls don't know is what they're actually seeing are not two more birds, but in fact reflections of themselves in the shiny cars. So they walk by a car, see their reflection, squawk, continue walking, see their reflection in the next car, and continue down the row. It's funny to watch, but man are they loud!
