Balancing act - a photo on Flickriver

Balancing act

A juvenile herring gull (tentative ID) on a rock across from a salmon carcass demonstrates its one leg, one wing balancing skills. It was one of a number of different species that took advantage of the bears' fishing skills during the fall salmon run, Riorden Creek, Gribbell Island, British Columbia. The salmon are the keystone species for the entire rich ecosystem of the north temperate rainforest.
