Well you’ve certainly set the standard here Anaya in this beautifully presented and written senryu, I’m sure you’ll be well rewarded in the contest, a middle line to die for, cheers David

Ty David you are too kind. As for the new lens; it's one dimensional, dead eyes, when set in black n white so I took the lid off. UPDATE 4/25 Updated the avatar!

Lovely birds in their flight. They rest at night on trees. Don't leave your car beneath, they will have to be washed :)

Many times, at the recycling center parking lot. The seagulls of all birds, far from the ocean spend their time perching, waiting for the car (white, they recognize it) that brings bird seed, they flock to the car and in formation. I took some pictures, I watch as they eat then poop! TY for your visit, Victor!

Anaya, lovely poem…I can hear the rustling and envision the sudden changes. You’ve made something lovely. The word choice of a cloud of perching birds makes my brain fly a bit, which is a reflection of the leap of imagination you bring to bear. Smiling.

A passerine is any bird of the order Passeriformes which includes more than half of all bird species. "Sometimes" known as perching birds. After more study, you're are most right dear Duke! Passerines' have three toes forward, one backward, when sitting on a perch, non-passerines don't. We get only one verb, I chose shift but tried to use it as a in shifts as a noun, too complicated I'm using it as a verb. Hope that helps. TY Duke! Let's call this one abstract.

Nouns aren't so difficult as I thought they can either be a verb or a noun, tricky, whew! TY Silent One, nice to see you.

TY Yann! Me too. I look up in the spots I know they'll be putting on the avian show for me. It's at the windiest parts of the valley, I take pictures! Say cheese/fromage ;)

The wind above enhances their dance, it truly is something to watch in silence, seagulls being the noisiest of the creature's. TY, Nette for your lovely comment!
