A Glaucous Gull struggling (and failing) to keep a starfish down.
Bit of a crappy week, we had a puncture this morning and ended up having to replace all 4 tires (the others were also really worn down), that's over 40000 yen that we don't really have plus over 2 hours of waiting around in gas stations.
At Kamiiso there were 7 species of gull, the usual common wildfowl including Whooper Swan and Black Scoter and some Great Crested Grebe on the sea. At Onuma there wasn't much either, here's a Nuthatch............
No eagles near Hakodate so far but we did see several Buzzard and a couple of Goshawk.
No footy on TV tonight, a bit of a dull end to a bit of a dull week.....................
Thanks for clicking this link.......

Hey,. I've just eaten - do you mind? Good shot Stu, and just to prove gulls will eat almost anything. Bad luck with the rubbers - they don't last forever.
ReplyDeleteExcellent timing with the exiting content and super nuthatch shot. Lots of Buzzard here recently too.
ReplyDeleteTyres eh - who'd ave em???
ReplyDeleteDunno what wages are like over there but I just paid almost the same for a set of four for Wifey's little Peugeot - couldn't really afford it and all that waiting round!!!
Still that's her Christmas present sorted ;-)
Great gull!
Cheers
