I've entered it in the NZ Geo competition, but even if I don't get anywhere, I still think it's a cracker. Three black shags/māpunga (Phalacrocorax carbo) fighting over an eel."

I bet the camera crew is costing at least $300/hour but it's only your money, so, whatever!
Be warned, bus lanes bring fines!
