[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hi Folks , I took this photo out at Frank Lake nature reserve , while practicing my in-flight shots on the least tern. I guess this gull figured the tern should not get all the spot light so came in for a few runs , or maybe I was just close to the food ;-)

this one took three runs , its third run ended in an abrupt splash down :-)

it was a lot of fun watching all the birds at their fishing activity , as well some great practice too.
thanks for stopping in
regards
Art

Hello Art,
Fantastic catch of the gull lifting off after splash down, it doesn't like he was successful , but you sure were. Great shot Art.
