I ain't bovvered !
This Grey Seal at Donna (nursery)was keeping an eye on the starlings which were feeding around it but just couldn't be bothered to do anything.

I love this Robert, 'duals' like this make interesting pictures - the seal looks so contented. :toast: :toast:

As others have said, a very interesting 'David and Goliath' shot - one nit though, would a higher f stop allowed a sharper starling as he looks slightly OOF on my screen ?

The way the image shows the contrast in size between seal and bird is great (quite literally).
