I was sitting on the rocks with the tide line some ten feet away and this character was busy feeding away, on occasions so close that I could not get focus with my 300mm F4 lens.
Then the moment, it stopped and gave me intense scrutiny for what seemed like minutes and was totally unphased, I almost felt that if I had put some meal worms on the palm of my hand it would have eaten from my hand.
A precious experience.
These close encounters are a rare treat, it probably wished it had a camera too:-)
