Hooded Merganser and Craw-Dad

Once they find the Craw fish/Dad on the bottom of the lake they bring them to the surface hold them by a claw/pincer and shake until they dislodge the pincer and then take them whole. Look closely as a pincer is still attached to this guys bill as he flipped it ready to do the same to the second one.. He had a problem getting it from his bill even after taking the snack down whole. Me thinks he's a beginner at this type of fishing or, just a bad misfortune.
