Lol...A lovely play on words. Rightfully so the seagulls are thinking that there may be fish in those nets.

Thanks, Simone! I still keep playing with 'fish' and come up with meanings that even I think I missed teh first time around. Thank you so much.

Yes, those seagulls are born focused on a free meal- - - but I had to wonder...... were you playing with words again? I also read this as the seagull was focused on the woman's black fish net nylons ? ? ? ? ? 10++++++++++++
