Great Egret, Ardea alba, with lunch. Two fish speared, another ready-to-go. University of Puerto Rico's Botanical Gardens. He ate them all........greedy guy or, maybe, just very lucky.
Canon 30D, Canon 100 - 400mm, ISO 200, f/5.6 at 1/1000sec.,handheld.
As per the above, you needed to move to your left or have the bird turn its head back towards you. Good job with the EXP. The focus seems to be on the speared fish rather than on the bird's eye.
later and love, artie
