Whimbrel feeding on a hermit crab.
Hermit crabs have a soft body unlike normal crabs and protect themselves by occupying a empty sea shell and carrying it around. This whimbrel put its long beak to good use and literally shook the crab out of the shell. Will post the series in the natural history section.
500D, 55-250, 250mm, AE, f7.1, ISO 200, SS 1/400. Calicut outskirts. C&C welcome
