This eagle came in so close it was hard to follow and keep in the frame. I was shooting at 500 mm. Anyway if the fish is small enough they pass it from talons to mouth to swallow whole. In the last photo, if you zoom in, you can just see the tip of the fish tailfin.

You see something new every day. Looks like it could be as dangerous as texting while driving.

Nice catch and series.
