Failure to Launch

Make a free picture slideshow

Interestingly enough, out of the hundreds of seagulls on our beach only one was a "failure to launch." He would non-stop screech at his mom...constantly following her and trying to get food out of her mouth. When I say non-stop...I mean the entire day. Both he and his mom were residence of the hotel grounds where we were staying and had risen to celebrity status...for both his persistence and her patients. For some motherhood can last longer than the breast feeding stage.
