[obol] Birds eating birds

[Tim Rodenkirk]

Hi Bill, Pamela, and Co.

A couple years ago at the OFO meeting in Gold Beach,
several of us watched a crow grab a young starling
that was immediately pursued by several gulls, it
dropped the starling which was immediately grabbed by
some other gulls which were chased by other gulls and
the starling was dropped once again only to be caught
in the air by a Glaucous-winged Gull and quickly
swallowed!

We were all (mostly) cheering,
