Razorbill Flying in with Sandeels

Never seen this bird before. How does he catch them? OK, I can see catching one, but how do they catch so many at once?

Nice capture.

Great shot Joe and I'll look forward to the answer to Mitch's question

Excellent capture, Joe!

Thanks folks!

The Razorbill, like other Auks (Puffin or Guillimot), will land in the water, swim and catch the fish. They use their tongue to hold in what they've already caught, allowing them to catch another one.

They're also over in the Americas, starting in Maine and working north.

Ah, forgot about the tongue.
