It saves them the energy of crossing the harbor to get to the Peninsula. --TwoDragons Kinda reminds me of the seagulls in Galveston, who wait for the Bolivar Ferry to be underway so they can coast along in its draft.

They would take the local train or subway (tube) to the park every day and then take the train back home in the evening. Or the other way around. Think it was in New Scientist. Years ago. Apparently they knew when their stop was coming up because they would walk over to the doors and wait. Also there was a web video of something similar but I cannot find it now.
