Great timing and wonderful color. Nice when you get a blue sky instead of clouds.. Who got the fish?

Magnificent capture, Nina . . . not happy that the pelican ate the cormorant though . . . or was he just after the fish?

No no no! He didn't eat the cormorant...he just held him under water until it dropped the fish, then he grabbed the fish and gulped. Cormorant looked at him like, "realllllly" ???
