Description
- Scotland, Kyle of Lochalsh -
Back on the headland I had a rest in a small harbour. There I heard a gull beside my car nonstop screaming all the time and I was wondering why.
I took a closer look and noticed that its bill was totally crossed! (In this simple shot you cannot see exactly).
I was so sorry for that poor little guy and asked myself how it could have such an accident? I remembered the story of another crossed bill bird which tried to put the nails of Jesus' hands away and got such crossed bill. *s*
I threw food to it but the other gulls were taking it away. So I got out of the car and hunted the other guys. And I also wondered that he could eat the bread with that crippled bill.
Hope not boring you with that simple shot but I felt very sad about what I saw.
Thanks a lot for all your appreciated comments and I wish you a relaxed sunday! ;o)))

Nature can seem so cruel to us sometimes. A beautifully textured shot.
Yes, poor little thing. An inspriation to us to do the best we can with what we have.
Poor little bird, you did what you could, but... Great shot!
I belive he can eat anyway... how could he have grown up so big if he couldn't? ;)
