    This adult Great Black-backed Gull was ripping apart a young skimmer that it dispatched at the western end of the Nickerson colony. For two more images of the carnage see my post in Avian ID, Nomenclature, and Behavior here: http://birdphotographers.net/forums/...ad.php?t=44455 Seen any good predatory gull behavior? Add it to the list at the thread above.

    This image was created with the tripod-mounted 800mm f/5.6L IS lens with the EOS-1D MIII. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +1 stop: 1/1250 sec. at f/6.3.

    Don't be shy. All comments welcome.
