Flying Fish

What nefarious designs does the gull have on the fish?

The tern did not wait to find out.

Curiously, the gull did not follow. 

Even more curious is that the tern was standing there, fish in mouth, 

screaming the whole time,

 seemingly daring the gull to give it a go.

Taken on our Labor Day weekend trip to Cape May. 

When I wasn't shooting the sun that is.

(Anybody know what kind of fish it is? Note the yellow tail.)
