It appears to me that the Gull is taking a moment to honor the deceased. It is sad to see a dead bird on the beach.

Thanks, David.
It was picked up and carried away, by the Gull.

Interesting shot- looks maybe like a starling? Nice capture. Waste nor, want not, I guess.

These gulls will eat most things, living or dead, so I guess it ate it. Good shot, Karl!
