more oyster catchers, less boat by chris morton

do they sleep with their eyes open? Not moving as they do when preening...or who knows perhaps they came from a disk for CS6 and aren't alive at all

They're just keeping their beaks warm.

Great caption and title...! What a shame they're hiding their beaks, though.... (I used to have two semi-tame ducks -- or, rather, they adopted me as a guaranteed food source... -- and they had developed a knack of sleeping with one eye open, one eye closed.... Evolutionary; or just odd...?)
