Thank you for your comment.

I was lucky being at the right place, at the right time with the camera ready for that last shot. I guess such a situation does not happen so often, a gull on a swan picking in the feathers...

I was out early in the morning and I could not resist trying to make most out of the soft morning light, and it turned out really well.

Thank you for your comments.

Lovely light in the first one. Very nice. The last one is pretty funny.
