Polly Performs a Pedicure

I hardly ever get black buzzards to pose for me. But this morning, I had two. One was on a high telephone wire, and this guy (girl?) was on a lower pole. Both of them were in the back yard of a retail fish market, perhaps hoping for a handout?

I had a blip choice between ugly Polly or cute Chloe in a kayak, but I can't resist a bird with tongue. Cute Chloe (a schnauzer) and her owner are in the Extras.
