Author's comments:
Fuimos testigos de una dura escena natural, una pareja de gaviotas andinas acosaron a la gallareta ligas rojas hasta que la obligaron a dejar su nido, sin mas devoraron los huevos. La heroica gallareta tuvo que contemplar rendida el fin de su nidada frente a sus ojos. Tras esto la noche cayo como un telon y uno se queda dudando si fue un espectador de lujo o un complice de asesinato, pero la naturaleza es asi: infinitamente rica y sorprendente
