I was on this guy when he/she dropped the fish it caught
seconds before. I managed to stay on until it finally recaptured and swallowed it in mid air.
Thanks for looking.

Great timing. The fish really adds to the image. I also like the water drops over the back. The image really tells the story well.

Superb action capture Karl, and I love the head-on angle with wings outstretched on the diagonal. Sharp as a tack and perfect exposure. The dropped fish is the icing on the cake. What a great shot!
