It is interesting to watch how he forages for food and thrusts its bill down to snatch the prey when sighted..
This young gull is holding a European Green Crab in his mouth.
This crab is an invasive species to the west coast of Canada. The crabs are known to devour native species and destroy habitat.
Yet, it made for a great meal for this happy gull.

I was asked about this in a picture which only showed this seafood outlet in a corner, so here's a full view.
I've never tried it, but it usually has a queue of people when it opens and customers know best!
As seen on a walk.

Feeding on a sea urchin, this small Mediterranean rainbow wrasse (Coris julis) is a colourful fish that can be found in the Mediterranean Sea and in the northeast Atlantic Ocean from Sweden to Senegal.
Coris julis is a sequential hermaphrodite: all start in the smaller initial phase. These initial-phase individuals (both females and males) can turn into the larger secondary-phase males. At a length of about 18 cm (7.1 in), all individuals are secondary-phase males. The maximum length for the species is 25 cm (9.8 in). There is a marked difference in the appearance of the two phases. In the Mediterranean Sea, the secondary-phase male is green, blue, or brown, with a white belly, a dark blue spot over the ventral fin, and a bright orange band on the side, while the smaller primary-phase females and males are brown with yellowish sides and white bellies.
I took this shot after the Mako Seafood float had closed. But I can vouch for their fine seafood chowder. The closest I've come to New England Chowder since Boston days. There are two levels on this float. The bottom one serves fresh fish to cook at home, and the top floor serves cooked seafood.
There was no one around on this chilly summer evening. But the highlight for me here is the way the mountain is gently backlit by the sun which had set quite some time before.
[Best to enlarge this one and look around. In the background you'll see Lark's Distillery and a replica of Douglas Mawson's Antarctic Hut.]
The night before I took my previous two shots uploaded today, I decided to set up this shot and see how it worked out. It is a deliberate attempt to create something like Edward Hopper's iconic painting, "Nighthawks" (1942).
Each window has a story to tell (please do enlarge), from the diners to the fish processing rooms on the ground floor. And of course you will recognise the giant red lobster on the roof. The alley between the buildings on the left hand side also leaves you with a feeling of expectation - who might walk around that corner?
At Domenico's on Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey, California, drop by for some good fresh seafood. And sample their clam chowder. Good stuff, Maynard.
Old pic. Prices are probably MUCH higher now.

With so much coastline and clean seas around Croatia, seafood dominates the menus. We saw abundant marine life even in the busy harbour, an encouraging sign..
Lots of excellent restaurants along this street in Dubrovnik. The outdoor dining experience is lovely in the evening and not often repeatable in the UK.
