CommentI often try to look for repeated behaviour in animals to anticipate and what they'll do next, this was a case of waiting for the Gull to come down to the water, either to drink, or feed from the top (I wasn't sure). But it was cool to get the moment that the bird's beak entered the water, getting the mirror image was a little bonus too!
