Day 166: Seagull Landing

Day 166: Seagull Landing, originally uploaded by Craig is shooting.
A seagull caught just as he was landing in shallow water in Zandvlei, Cape Town. It it such a wonderfully calm day today (especially after the howling wind yesterday). I was just walking around the vlei, enjoying the sun on my back, and taking a few shots of the birds.
Here are two more:

Seagull in flight; notice the reflection in the water.

And finally, another Seagull in flight. In the background is Park Island with Marina da Gama in the far background.
Go Bafana Bafana!
There are less than 5 hours until the kickoff, and South Africa has gone completely crazy. Everybody is hooting, blowing their vuvuzelas, wearing the yellow and green of our national side Bafana Bafana, all getting ready to support our team in the opening match.
The traders on the street are doing a roaring trade, with lines of cars stopping on the side of the road, hoping to still buy a flag or supporters shirt.
We are going to have a great game, and we are going to show that Africa can put on a great show!
