    On occasion when a brown pelican flips the fish back towards its throat one might escape, but it seems the pelican always keeps its eye on the lost prize.

    Thanks for looking.

    Hey Tim, this is a cracker. I love the facial expression, the bird is eyeing up the fish, appearing to wait for it falling into its mouth. the detail is very good as is the pose. Very nicely captured. Well done.

    Very cool is right! I love the flying fish but I like the fish looking out of the bill too. They add to the whole story. Looks like everybody is looking at everybody. Fun frame.

    Neat image, I am sure the eye is on the falling fish hoping to catch it again. Thank you for sharing, Tim.
