Just Keep Skimming
Evolution and selection have resulted in many amazing adaptations for feeding. Black Skimmers (Rynchops niger) like this one have specialized beaks made for one purpose. They fly right above the surface, with the lower mandible slicing through the water. They keep "skimming" until they feel their lower beak make contact with a fish...snap shut like a steel jaw trap!
