 It would be good for me to eat more fish. And I like sushi, so that could work! Just have to teach the gull to filet it and add some wasabi.

I have fish every day... but maybe it's not fresh enough. Spectacular shot.

You have caught this bird at the critical moment and framed the scene so well. The lighting is superb as is the exposure. This could not be bettered.
