Daacon, in Australia, if you used the phrase "Two friends going out for a cold one", it would mean that you and a "mate" (friend) are going to the pub for a nice cold beer or two. So the last thing I expected to see was two birds on the ice!!!

Horribly disappointed,
Dan.

These guys look like lawyers heading off to court. Actually, they're probably dreaming of bombing someone's freshly cleaned boat.

Dave, they seem to be walking with determination in their stride. LOL, Jer is probably right. Nice photo though.

Thanks Jer - you are correct - they do look like they are doing some buisness haha as for the boat bombing I think more cars in this neck of the woods - they must pratice on windshieds and then go for the boats.

Yes, I think Dan is right, they are headed to Dave's house for cold ones! Wait till the neighbours see Dave's new guests!

Very nicely done. I'd say they were going cold turkey but they look a wee bit small to be a turkey.

Dave, I think the car-to-boat transition is what dictates their migration patterns. BTW, I just noticed that I didn't mention that I think this is a delightful capture. Great job, buddy.
