Just wanted to share this with you, it was a scene I got to enjoy on 8.7.12 at Prime Hook Beach Road in Delaware. One juvenile Herring Gull got his beak on a Blue Crab (I didn't see that part). Next thing I know these two come streaking across the sky in front of me pulling maneuvers that would knock a human pilot out cold. I got off around 12 frames, none of which was too much in focus but oh well...
