Emergency landing by onewing

Emergency landing

I always post a people photo on a Friday and today's people picture is of a chap who I believe is called Mervin and he regularly feeds the birds near the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney. I believe @elaine55 has taken a photo of him last year too.

He is a very popular chap with the gulls and has got quite a following.

I suppose this could also be classed as a bird picture too, but today's topic photo of birds in my other folder is here http://365project.org/onewing/topics/2014-02-07

PS Thanks so much to everyone who commented on my juvenile koel a couple of days ago. It got on the Popular Page. I can't believe that, my photos don't usually appear on there!!!
Cool shot, well timed

@ourrube Thanks Ruby
@helenmichelled Thanks Helen. He is very popular.
@mcmary Thanks Mary. Once he arrived birds came from everywhere.
@tryingforsighs thanks Rachel. I was just lucky with this shot I think.
@steampowered Thanks Paul. He obviously doesn't mind being dropped on, he is a regular visitor. Hope you are feeling better now.
@joeyc Thanks Joey.
@beryl Thanks Beryl. He probably did leave a present, he regularly feeds the gulls here, so I reckon it would be inevitible.
@heidihp Thanks Heidi. He regularly feeds the birds here so I guess he has learnt to put a hat on!!
@hermann Thanks Sally.
@mercuria Thanks Ariel. He probably learnt the hard way to put a hat on.
@jennyheath Thanks Jenny. It made him smile too. He had quite a collection of birds. You know how pushy seagulls can be!!

Love the shot Babs. Can't say I'd like to be a seagull landing pad. Good to look at someone who clearly does!

Oh Babs, I love your people shots. This is hilarious. I hope he got to see it!

@golftragic Thanks Marnie. I woudnt fancy it landing on my head either. Apparently the chap feeds the birds regularly.

@sunraye Thanks Raye. I do think I am coming to the end of my people shots, but then I find more. Wonder how long I can keep it going for.

@cljs Thanks Chris.

@cathy366 Thanks Cathy. I am getting really good these days at asking people if I can take their photo. although with this one I took the photo first and then asked him if he was okay with that. He was a lovely chap and feeds the birds regularly I believe.
