Pétanque Game

I was out doing a bird shoot on the Gulf of Mexico when I happened upon this group engulfed in a game that I had neither seen nor heard of. The players were reveling in the fun of the game and speaking French. I inquired as to what game it was and I was told that it was Pétanque, a French game similar to the Italian game of Bocce Ball. The cast of characters looked amusing to me so I fired off a shot and then went back to photographing the birds
