bravest seagull on earth

while getting ready to photograph the peregrine a gull lands in the osprey nest. it has some chutzpa

 

I like how the falcon looks at him like "What are you doing there insignificant bird?"

 

I realize it is partly perspective, but the gull looks as big if not bigger than the Osprey.

 

it is a peregrine falcon. fastest animal on earth.
that gull is bigger but they have webbed feet whereas the peregrines has talons which could rip that gull to shreds although I have never seen a peregrine go after a gull for a meal. I have seen gulls chase other birds to try and steal their catch. yesterday there was a gull in an osprey nest and a peregrine landed and the gull flew off screaming

 

Thanks for the explanation and the photo. I also thought it was just because of the perspective that the gull looked bigger.

 

or ; "this is a raptor party only pal"

 

Awesome shot. ;
