Great timing Fred!
Nice head on view of a seagull with his sushi lunch for one.
Focus, exposure, details and white balance are all handled well here.
Fine capture ;)

Comment from Shadow catcher
Thanks for offering,but,uh no,I'll pass! I'm glad he's enjoying it as it does not look at all appetizing,course. I'm not a seagull.Nice capture of this gull getting ready to consume some sushi,your focus and colors are wonderful,like the head on image so we can see that open beak.Just wonder what kind of fish it was!

Doesn't look appetizing at all. I like mine cooked. Good capture though. Nice close-up that's well focused and lighting is good. The background fading is excellent keeping the focus on your subject.

No. I have no idea what this bird is trying to eat, but it doesn't look like anything I would want to eat. Beautiful detail and color rendition.
Good used of the rule of thirds. Good depth of field so that the bird and his prey "pop". Very Well done.

A superb capture of the gull as it starts to devour the fish. I imagine one gulp and perhaps a bite and the fish disappears.
Nice focus, composition, and lighting.
Well done!

A wonderful shot although I have never seen a gull that was willing to share food. This perspective is great and shows not only the gull, but his lunch in great detail.
