Gulls and terns were snagging lunch out of the pond and flying off to eat it on a recent gorgeous blue-skyed day.

The gulls will try to steal another bird’s catch so a successful hunter will quickly move on to a safer spot to eat.

Most of the catching was on the other side of the pond, swooping away from me.

This tern opted to fly low with his catch.

While a gull took off higher before disappearing over the marsh.
