I drove to Altona to meet friends and do normal things!
The pier:
Me trying (and failing) to get an identifiable photo of a bird flying past:
We met up for lunch, then visited an exhibition at the Louis Joel Arts & Community Centre.
It was the last day of the "Abstract Threads" exhibition of works by Robyn Cuthbertson and Tania Tanti.
In Robyn's work it is her free-motion stitching in coloured threads that creates the designs. I have shown some of her work before, when I saw it at "Golden Textures" last year.
Tania paints her designs on the fabric, then the stitching embellishes them.
"Just Me" above, and detail of "Flamingo" below.
Fun painted furniture pieces as well:

Sounds like a fun day out!
Your bird could possibly be Larus pacificus (Pacific gull). Not a lot to go on but the wing markings fit in.
Just the start of many more catch ups, it was a lovely day together.
On second thoughts, more like Larus dominicanus (Kelp gull)
It was a lot sunnier than your photos suggest. A perfect day - may there be many more.
What a seemingly normal day out with friends.
