Serious maritime business going down in Boothbay Harbor. The Double-crested Cormorant is absolutely listening to a very long, very detailed complaint from the absolute absolute unit that is the Great Black-backed Gull.

A canvas sitting on an easel. The canvas is light grey with a large Great Black-backed Gull painted on it. The rest of the canvas is covered in a sketch of an old lobster trap on the beach.

After I posted a bird of the day, I went into the field and captured this #GreatBlackbackedGull which satisfies the main theme of the day, as well as the alt theme.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WingsWideOpen, and the Alt Theme is #Laridae, any of the species. #bird #birdphotography
A gull flies toward the camera, wings spread wide, bill open.

A significant predator we were soon to witness in action….Nesting season. I expected many losses. What I didn’t expect was that adults too were at risk. The Great Black was witnessed twice picking off adult Puffins. It’s nature and need to survive.

And the Gull gets its beak on the eel as the eel struggles to escape the Cormorant. This was a repeat performance, the eel managing to completely exit the cormorant on a couple of occasions before finally being fully swallowed.

The great black-backed gull is the largest gull on Earth. A big one can catch an adult puffin then swallow it whole.

The ocean really messes with your sense of scale. 🌊 Out here alone in Boothbay Harbor, this juvenile Great Black-backed Gull looks like a perfectly normal-sized, unbothered bath toy just riding the waves. In reality? It is an absolute giant. 🐥⚓

When you are the largest gull in the world, you simply expect humanity to provide adequate seating out on the open water. 👑 It's clear that this Great Black-backed Gull appreciates that we obliged by putting this buoy exactly where a well-deserved break was required!

"But I said I wanted French fries" 🍟 This first-year Great Black-backed Gull and adult are having a shouting match in the middle of the flock. Juvenile gulls are known for loudly begging for food long after they are the same size as their parents. The drama is real! 🗣️🌊

When herring gulls do that 'hakhakhak' call, are they really saying 'greatblackbackedgull' quickly? 🤔
