Thank you. The raven amicably left the scene. It didn't like the odds of getting tag-teamed. :D As a side note, one of the combatants, the Eurasian sparrowhawk (pic below), can be a bit difficult to distinguish from the Japanese sparrowhawk. Luckily, the Eurasian has 6 individual wingtips (5 for the Japanese).View attachment 25331
Hi David,

Thank you for providing the additional information - and the excellent bonus image (what a cutie!)... :)

Out of my way!


Silver Gull and Curlew Sandpiper
  • Canon EOS R5
  • RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM + EXTENDER RF1.4x
  • 700.0 mm
  • ƒ/10
  • 1/2000 sec
  • ISO 800


Silver Gull : Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae
Curlew Sandpiper : Calidris ferruginea
Moreton Bay, Queensland


One of our local 'seagulls' spent ten or so minutes standing amongst a few dozen refugees from arctic Siberia, and then, without any warning that I could discern, barged through the little fellas causing one of them to execute an emergency take-off.

In a month of two, the Curlew Sandpipers will be gone: back to their breeding grounds fringing the far north-west Pacific.

Hi David,

You caught the moment beautifully!

Perfect 'take-off thrust' pose from the gull - and 'arrrrgh' reaction from the curlew with sublime control of the light (by you).

Thank you for sharing... :)
