Have you ever seen a Gull grabbing lunch called Red Bait from a sea squirt?
They arrived in formation senior just leading the second one in line.
Another short walk on the beach and another adventure was waiting for us.
We love the sea air and the secluded part of the beach that we visit, most often, delivers the goods.
The song of the sea is a sound like no other as the waves rhythmically crash up and down.
So come and look what I have for you today.
This guy looked like he spotted something to eat.
He found a sea squirt and was pecking at it.
Bang! He found something inside and pulled it out.
It is called Red Bait by the local fishermen here and they cut it out with a sharp knife to use for fishing bait. But the Kelp Gull needs no knife, as his beak is sharp.
Preparing to slurp the rich morsel up.
And there you go. He swallowed it.
Then I bid him farewell, and the happy gull took off.
Did I tell you that there are always adventures here at the beach?
If it is not Terns and Oyster Catchers, then it is Gulls and Geese.
Of course, also Kingfishers and other kinds of birds. I have posted all of these before, including the Kelp Gulls, but today was a special event.
The gull can strip a mollusk of its precious cargo within minutes, and the fishermen will take a much longer time to unearth the red bait.
Just nature's way to feed life at the ocean.
I hope that you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.
And That's All Friends.
