The quality not so good, but a great inter-action I don't see very often.. So Maxine knocked the Willet out of the sky into the water, circled around a couple of times and scooped him up out of the water. So on the way back to shore a gull saw opportunity for a free meal, so doing what gulls do best, he tried to steal it. Was a nice try, but Maxine won the day and took her prize back to her cliff-side dwelling to enjoy a well deserved meal.

Took a trip down south of where I live to visit a western screech owl. My first encounter with one in nearly 20 years of photography on the island. I have often heard others talk about them but have never had the opportunity to actually see one in person. This will be the 11th owl species I have photographed in B.C. so far.
