Ring-billed Gull.

[Karl Egressy]

The fish already had a chunk taken out either by the same gull or some other.
Thanks for looking.

Lovely gull, Karl. It looks like it has a catfish. Thank you for sharing.

[Geoffrey Montagu]

Nice catch for both of you, Karl. Great detail on gull and fish in beautiful soft warm light.

Great image of an often overlooked specie. I especially love seeing the fish's eye.

Hi Karl, great light and IQ in this, and overall well exposed. The Gull is showing off his catch nicely.

Lovely image Karl --- a lower angle would have been even better but not always possible to achieve that . i find a dust spot near its head . TFS !

Love the soft light in this image.
Excellent IQ and nice to see a fish in the bill,

Excellent Karl...
The fish details are terrific and the light is really nice...

[arash_hazeghi]

the fish is killer Karl, well done

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Nicely done Karl. Love the catch. A lower POV would've been ideal IMHO too, but if not possible, this is great too!
