Have finally got round to writing the story behind some images I took last year of a Gull taking a duckling!

Full story with 9 images can be found in the Showcase section on my website here.

Please don't click the link if the image below upsets!

Ah! My baby .

Great series of photos Danny. Maybe not top IQ but the series is fantastic, so dramatic, and shows nature at her cruelest. Like something from a David Attenborough documentary! Well done for taking them and publishing them.

Thanks everyone, appreciated!

Must admit that it took me by surprise but apparently is not uncommon!

This was the first page with the new full width layout and larger font, done to emphasis the text and full size images. Does it work for you, would appreciate any feedback please!

Good set on the blog Danny. I've got a couple of a Heron taking a coot chick and being chased by parents, on my flickr. Pity I missed the focus

Superb behavioural set Danny !

Amazing that the gull was able to swallow the duckling whole.
