Anhinga and Fish

I came upon an Anhinga trying to swallow a pretty good size fish in our city park. He seemed to be having some trouble getting the fish down his throat, and of course, the fish was not cooperating. Here is a sequence of shots with a lot missing:

Nice action series, looks like it got a good sized crappie. Looks to have struggled to get it down the hatch.. I like number 4, thanks for sharing!

Fine series, I ought to show that to my kids when I tell them not to rush their food to avoid indigestion

Great series. It always amazes me how large a fish these guys can swallow.

That is an amazing series, Well done!

Fantastic series .. amazing that it got that thing down .. did it burp after?

I didn't hear it, but I am sure it would qualify at 7-eleven as a "big gulp". He did take a dring of water to help lubricate the path.

Super series, bcd!

wow, it got it down! i wonder if they get hiccups?

I ate too much! Wonderful series.
