Forgot to post this yesterday.  FOY Kingfisher, male, seen 4/18 near 
mouth of Cross River, Schroeder.  Was carrying a live minnow-size fish, 
landed on a breakwall to get it in position to swallow.  Herring gull 
showed up, wanted the fish of course, chased kingfisher to another rock, 
where it almost succeeded in getting the fish situated to swallow it 
headfirst.  Another gull showed up.  When last seen the kingfisher was 
flying away from the gulls, but still with the fish.
