The other buffet

Don't let the casual perch on the rock fool you. He's about to move in for the kill. We watched several gulls as they plucked the pretty purple starfish from the shallow water. They then proceeded to gulp down the starfish whole. They would get all but two arms in before they would have to stop and let the morsel digest a bit before they could swallow the rest of it. I'm no gull expert, I'm just assuming. Ah....the beauty of nature.
