Someone through a piece of bread into the water... The Duck grabbed it and took off. The Gull was hot in pursuit until the duck dived under the water to escape...
This was taken at the Wollongong botanical gardens while trying out my "new" secondhand lens - so far so good - I am still uncomfortable with it and it doesn't have VR, but it's a clear capture!!!

Hi Mark

This is a crystal clear shot - I like the splash of the water droplets over the gull

They can be really vicious! you have captured this well

Dear Mark, it's a very good photograph.From TL, I got the impression that Nikkor 80-200mm f2.8 lens is a very good choice.
