Clouds, not birds

Today was a frustrating day in my search for blips.  I spent several hours taking my older sister to doctors appointments and for lab tests, and I kept missing out on opportunities to shoot birds that landed outside the window, hung around for ages preening and posing, and taunting me because I wasn't in a position to get out my camera and take their pictures.  One was a crow, I think, sitting at the very top of a very feathery tree that seemed too spindly to hold his weight.  The other was a beautiful gull, just sitting still, just out of my reach.  So I had to resort to clouds for my blip - they were much more dramatic than yesterday, real storm clouds, and I think they look even more so in mono.
