Beach Roadkill (caution - graphic images)

12 years 3 months ago - 12 years 3 months ago #197690 by Baydream
We have a friend from Scotland who was fascinated by the variety of wildlife here. She doesn't get to see much other than roadkill on her short visits. Last week, I was walking the beach and found Beachkill?????? I felt compelled to send her photos.
Gull (I think)

Cormorant

Shark


At least the other gulls were well fed.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

Very interesting John. There is a guy that actually made a coffee table book with nothing on it but roadkill images that he took. I don't think that it made the "Best Seller" list.

:rofl: That's because vultures and crows don't shop at Barnes and Noble.

Do you know why you seldom see dead crows along the road? Because there's one in the tree warning "Caw, Caw". :sick:
