Hello everybody,
found this at Bombay Hook almost a year ago. Thought it was an interesting scene and decided to post it for the motif. Don't know if the fish used to live there or somebody threw it to lure some raptors, the sure thing is that gulls found it first.
Comments and suggestions welcome.
Thanks for looking.

ps. any id for this gull?

Too funny! Talk about having eyes too big for one's stomach (or beak). Great gull behavior.
