A scrap over… (a scrap?)​

Silver Gulls : Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae
Sandgate Beach, Moreton Bay, Queensland​

I have no idea what these two were scrapping over (food presumably). It was just after eight in the morning, which made it far too early for every gull's favourite titbit (fish and chips) to be on the menu; apart from that it was extreme low tide and I was three or four hundred metres from the shore.

Hi David,

Looks like tit for tat over a tit bit...

(Possibly warming up for table service later in the day?).

PKM-UK, thanks! Some more photos from this place . I don't know if it will be interesting. I like to shoot more macro, but I'm new to Canon and still don't have a macro lens. Sorry for my bad english.

The first rains of the coming season(s) stopped long enough and allowed the Sun to peek through. This Dalhalia is called "Bridezilla" from Swan Island Dahlias.

Wow, wonderful perspective looking up at the flower and that dramatic sky

Hi Plamen,

Cheers for the additional images and information - keep up the good work.

You can rest assured your English is significantly better than our Bulgarian!

Hi David,

Never ceases to amaze us there aren't more mid-airs - terrific piloting skills...

(Excellent BIF - we are wondering whether you're stood waist deep in water?).

Back at my local park today (after a few weeks) on a very slow afternoon, but still managed to get two decent shots, a grey and a black-crowned night-heron (juvenile). The grey heron was snacking on a taunagi (Asian swamp eel).

Hi David,

The moment was well seen and caught - love the eye catch-light...

(We suspect one of the participants enjoyed the snacking experience more than the other!).

Great capture of the heron feeding.
