Nice shots, Harris

Talk about the decisive moment swallowing that fish! Well done...how does that bird get that fish down it's narrow throat ? In one gulp ?

My first thought on that Cormorant was "who is eating whom?".

Couldn't you get a little closer so we could see it better? And get a whole sequence so you could make it like Uncle Frank's animated hummer sequence? Then make it your Avatar and drive us even crazier :lol: .

Neatly done, Harris, truly captures a "decisive moment", for sure for the mullet.......

Here is a funny mullet story for you. I name all my machines after fish, like Ono/Wahoo/Flounder. So I was going to name a machine at work Mullet and one of my co-workers said "Why would you name a machine after a hair style that is no longer in fashion?". I was, to say the least, puzzled. I guess when you are old and bald hair styles just don't mean much anymore, not that they ever did before. Just goes to show you learn something new everyday.

greyflash · Feb 4, 2005

Gee Haris, it looks like you live in the middle of a bird sanctuary. You just keep serving up one after the other. Amazing.

Hi Harris:

Two more, no make that three more great shots.

Seeing the Cormorant with the fish explains what happens in a Pelican's pouch when you he is working the fish around before swallowing, but all you can see is the pouch jumping around.

We can hardly wait...

The cormorant would have been a better shot if there was a 500f4/1.4x combo on. It was pretty far away.
