Description
Seagull on a post at the pier, posing for the camera at Fort Myers Beach, Florida.
Interesting fact about birds standing on one leg: By standing on one leg, and pulling the other leg up against the warmth of its body, a bird can reduce by up to half, the amount of heat lost through its legs. In short, they stand on one leg to warm up a little bit.
