Taken at Newtown Creek on 140410, IW, Black headed Gull had just caught this crab and was off somewhere quiet for a spot of tea.
f/5.6, 280mm, 1/1600 sec, ISO 250, aperture priority, centre weighted. Please view large if time allows.
Thank you very much to all who viewed, commented and voted on my previous upload.

Large Version shows superb detail of the head and the crab. The wing positions make for a good composition too David.
