Wings on Wednesday -
YAM's take on the good, the bad, the ugly and
the downright hilarious in photographing birds.
Image 6/6... and finally, deliciousness!
Difficult to tell from this, but the blur inside the beak is the tossed mussel making its way to the gullet...
And off this bird flew and returned with another and started all over again.
Now that is for sure fresh catch of the day!!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and Dad

I have never seen gulls eating like this... never really thought about it. until now
ReplyDeleteSo we guess he mastered the muscle of the mussel:)

Fantastic capture!
ReplyDeletePhew! For the gull.
ReplyDeleteDelicious fruit of labour! Lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteHello, the gulls know just how to eat the mussels. Great capture! Take care, wishing you a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThis gull has no idea how well known he has become. It's a good thing he can't ask for royalties!
