A Snowy Egret is attacked by a Florida Gar, as she skims along the water, The gar tries to grab her foot. In shot 2 the Gar explodes out of the water as the Snowy takes off. I have seen a fish try to grab a bird many times, but have never caught the shot, usually it is just a small splash

Thanks so much Greg, really appreciate your looking and kind comment. It was so neat to finally shoot this. I have come close, but never got the fishes head.
