| Comment | I took this photo at Bendalong Beach near Jervis Bay while visiting with my mum. Tourists were feeding Rays, attracting opportunistic Silver Gulls diving for leftover fish. I captured two gulls fiercely fighting over a single fish, which disappeared within seconds as they tore it apart. I chose this photo because it perfectly reflects the true nature of Silver Gulls- noisy, competitive, and skilled opportunists always ready to snatch an easy meal. | ||||||||||||||||||
