    Default Cormorant Verses the Black-back Gull

    I took a series of photos today of a Black-back gull trying to take a Crab from a cormorant.
    There were a lot of clips but quite a show

    Yes. Thank you.
    The Black-back Gull id the largest of them all. It stands out on the Estuary . I just wanted a decent shot to replace one I uploaded earlier last month or I may not have noticed
