The fish has a funny color but I believe it is because of the lighting and the surrounding.

Super wing position and background, Karl. And the fish is the perfect finishing touch! Excellent.

The available light and influence of the surrounding colours all add the finishing touch to this beautiful capture, Karl!

Cool shot! It’s a catfish and they come in many different colors. Nothing unusual here. Click on the image at this link and you will see a couple of different colors:

I watched a Great Egret for about a 1/2 hour at Bosque trying to figure out how to eat one without getting stuck by the barbs. It flew off with it finally and I never knew how it worked out for the egret.
