Dale offers the prompt “on the shore” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
In the photo above are three royal terns (plus the legs of two others) minding their own business on the shore and wondering if I would mind mine.
In the photo below there are two birds (perhaps seagulls) watching the sunrise. There is actually a third tiny bird (sandpiper?) to the left on the shore.
Both of these were taken in southern Florida some years ago using my phone.

Lovely shoreline shots, Frank.

I’m imagining the seagulls talking, “Sushi this morning?” “Sure! That sounds great!”

One of the things I miss about periodic business trips to Florida is seeing Terns and other seabirds.

It is very hot in the summer, but a beautiful state. However, I’ve never been able to see palm trees as real trees.

So funny you should say that. We saw the stump of one and it’s not like a tree. It looks like the severed end of a bale of hay.
