[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A young seagull is attacking the Caspian Tern trying to steal his fish. I think the gull didn’t see a tern before and didn’t know what he was doing.
In the workshop I’m posting a picture showing some more action but unfortunately a bit out of focus.

Done at Osprey Marsh, a little park 10 minutes drive from my home.
Hand held, no flash, not from a blind.

Brilliant shot Mario!!

Spot on timing - the tern by itself would befantastic, but being mobbed by the gull is even better. Great POV and DOF. Well done!
