Lesser Yellowlegs - July 21

Herring Gulls and Green Crabs

European Green Crabs are an invasive species in Nova Scotia and compete with native species and so are considered a nuisance here. I'm no expert on crab identification but I believe that is what is pictured here. The gulls seem to love them as do the Common Loons which are often seen feeding on them as well. This wasn't what I had planned to photograph this day but sometimes you just have to take what you are given. Maybe the gulls were thinking the same thing.

I've decided that from here on I will only publish photos since that is what this blog has always been about. On the rare occasion I feel like writing something that might be pertinent to the photo I will still do that. Otherwise I feel like I will never get around to posting anything. So in that vein here is the first of what I hope will be many in the coming days.
