Sydney Opera House at Night

They really do make Circular Quay a very inviting place at night. Lots of light! As impressive as the Opera House normally looks, I think it looks better when you see if all lit up at night. I saw, above both the Opera House, and the Harbour Bridge, hundreds of birds or bats flying about. I first thought they were bats that had come out at night. Someone told me that these were sea gulls that had come to feed on the moths attracted by the lights. I never did find out which they were. But it is an interesting sight. You can see them above the opera house in this photo, though they are somewhat "swirrly" due to the long exposure.
