a little light hearted humor Ted...
but I do see that totally unanticipated bird adding something
important, a whimsical touch about the spontaneity of childhood...
that makes this image truly out of the ordinary,
my two cents anyway...
in any case the photo was taken before Photoshop existed, a long
time ago (however not before you existed my friend...)

If it weren’t so hanging on the corner distractingly taking the
eyes right away from the girl, I’d say leave it. Just put your
hand up and crop it off on screen and it’s “BINGO!!” neat moment
of child & photographer reaction. Where the picture really is,
“the girls expression” which is so beautiful

Hi Steve,
Sorry! You have to crop that distracting sea gull out! Other than
that it is a nicely captured child moment.
