Day 34: Eider Duck Attack


Today I'm very not well, so while I'm actually awake for 10 minutes I'll post one of my old but extremely awesome photos. This seagull tried stealing a crab that had just been caught by a baby eider duck - you wanna see them dive and catch and eat crabs - it's awesome. So anyway, the 2 mummy eider ducks were having none of it - the baby dived almost immediately with it's crab and the 2 mummy ducks went mental at the seagull. Moral of the story - mummy ducks are ferocious and should not be crossed.
