This is how it could look
Charming seaside scene: small traditional Patagonian wooden fishing boat heading back to small port after day's fishing. Following in wake: enormous joyful crowd of birds — kelp gulls, Dominican gulls, albatrosses, petrels — all circling and swooping, following boat hoping for fish scraps. Fisher (stout cheerful person in yellow oilskin) at helm. Boat loaded with catch. Following birds a chaotic enthusiastic jostling crowd — every bird with individual expression of hopeful greed. Relationship between birds and fishing boat ancient and companionable.
