Coming in hot, looks like !

Was it a touch-and-go (or rather, take-and-go) ?

I'm mainly here for the snacks

Fish In Flight.

*Edited to add my little story.

A Herring Gull grabs a puffin by its leg, in an attempt to steal his sand lances. The tiny puffin has no way to fight back without losing his family’s meal that he worked so hard for. His only defense is to try to break free from the grasp of the huge gull and make his way back to his burrow.

Will the puffin escape with his catch? Stay tuned to find out!

The puffin managed to escape with his catch! The moment the gull released his grip, the puffin flapped his little wings as quickly as possible and made it back to his burrow below. Only three fish were dropped in the struggle. He still had five (possibly six) fish in his beak to deliver to his little puffling.

The gull may be bigger, but the puffin is much more agile!
