This is another from the series of my previous post of a female Anhinga with a catfish prey. I captured about a hundred images of the bird and prey as it tried to position the fish to swallow, eventually succeeding. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Perfect timing of the flip.
Love how the fish can see where it is going ie ."down the hatch!"
Kind of cool and gross at the same time that we can see the intestine hanging down by the middle fin.
I like the slight grey in the BG avoiding a true high key look. Comp is good.
