Eating mussels on the fly

Hi friends,

Last week I have been on holiday in Galicia (Spain) and specifically in the quality of O Grove in the Arousa estuary.

On Saturday I went out on one of the tourist catamarans along the estuary to eat some mussels with a friend of mine.

During the trip, apart from enjoying the mussels, oysters and seafood rice, we enjoyed the company of several seagulls.

In order to get a photograph with my smartphone of the seagulls up close, my friend put a mussel between two pincer-like shells and one of the seagulls noticed the situation.

Without a second thought, it swooped down on my friend's fingers for its mussel-shaped booty.

In order to be able to take this moment, which lasted 4 seconds, the only way to get the images was to make a video and take the appropriate frames.

Best regards.
