Victor with the Spoils.

Taking a walk along the shore, I saw a squabble taking place between a gull and a Heron but wasn't quite quick enough to get the action shot of the Heron stealing a fish from the gull, but did manage to photograph the victor with the spoils.

On the bottom right hand corner, you can see the Gull's shadow as he flies away
 

Head first, as always!
 

The Heron will swallow the fish whole....
 

tilting his head, to do so.
 

There it goes!!
 

You can actually see the fish going down.
 

It was an easy steal for the Heron.
 

He just stood there for a while, digesting his meal I guess, and ...
 

looking out to sea...
 

Satisfied with his cheeky snatch.
