Fig Newtons are not small cookies.

This one, stolen from our picnic table today, was in the process of being swallowed whole.

Yeesh.

    You are such an amazing photographer. Wow!

    We were at Sea World about 10 years ago, eating lunch at an outdoor patio. These parents walked away from the table for a moment, leaving their maybe 3 year old sitting at the table full of food. A sea gull swooped in and grabbed an ENTIRE SANDWICH off the table from in front of the boy. His face just crumpled up and he let out the loudest cry. Greedy birds!

    Ew. I guess I'm relieved to find out it's a cookie.

    Fantastic photo. I wonder if gulls get indigestion?

    What a capture! It's a bit gross caught in the moment, isn't it?
