Amazing capture! That looks like a big fish (you know what kind?) staring deep down its captor's long/skinny throat here! So could the bird really manage to win the battle and gulp that whole thing down entirely okay? Does the fish put up a good fight, if eaten, does the unlucky prey get swallowed wriggling all the way as well?!
