Could very well be, Rona...kinda appears that big brother might be passing on some pointers on the fine art of food wrestling when Mom comes around next! :) Love this series - you've captured some amazing (and interesting!) shots - no exception here! Looking forward to more! #10138968

I'm with Jack. Birds and Gators...spells trouble! :))) No actually I think they are singing harmony and just got the the best part of the song! :))

Love it, Rona!
