I can't resist taking pictures of terns. They're fun to watch, they're always diving, and they catch a lot of little fish.
That said... This particular little fish was pretty cute and I wouldn't have minded if the tern had dropped it. (It didn't)

I was very disappointed with my underwater camera; most shots didn't work at all! I ended up using David's GoPro to take some video.
The fish crow is superficially similar to the American crow, but is smaller and has a silkier, smoother plumage by comparison.
Food is taken mainly from the ground or shallow water where the bird hovers and plucks food items out of the water with its feet. The fish crow is omnivorous. It feeds on small crustaceans, such as crabs and shrimps, other invertebrates, stranded fish, and live fish if the situation favors their capture, eggs and nestlings of birds, small reptiles, the fruits of many trees, peanuts, and grains, as well as human scraps where available.
This is a Japanese salt shaker, that's part of a set. I tried a 50-shot focus bracketing for this macro, which probably caused the background blur across the upper portion. Actual size is about 5 inches.
The Fish River Canyon is located in the south of Namibia and it is the largest canyon in Africa.

On a quick trip to Hilton Head last weekend, I made a stop at Fish Haul Creek Park, a beautiful spot near Port Royal Sound that always yields good birds. A nice little Tri-colored Heron was waiting here to greet me...
Another picture from the beautiful fish ladder. This one is taken with Mamiya RB67 and 90mm SEKOR on Ilford Delta 100.
So much fun to watch this school of fish while I was in a large, deep tidal pool. The turquoise spots on the top glowed in the sun. They were 1 1/2-2" long. If anyone knows what kind of fish they are, please let me know. They were taken in Maine.
A visit to Farmoor Reservoir in mid August hoping to see a Kingfisher that had been reported at Shrike Meadow.
A Kingfisher with a nice tasty Fish.

Fish base. Designed and folded by me. One square, no cuts. This was an interesting little challenge I've been thinking about for some time.
This osprey has managed to cough up a fish bone that got stuck in its throat!!!
Taken on Tigertail Beach, Marco Island, Florida.
Fish was on the menu for all birds at the river yesterday. The eagles, ducks, Canada geese, ring-billed gulls, and swans all were feasting on fish.
Bald eagle passes by quickly with its fish tucked in tight to keep it hidden from the other feathered thieves. NO crop here ... came in real close to where I was along the riverbank in that sunrise light.
A photo i took 2 years ago,but i felt like "reviving" it- this was taken in a local petshop,and i like the way the security door at the back of the shop shows through the fish tank,plus the reflections from the glass,for a surrealistic type effect.

I'm amazed I managed to rally in time to get this shot done today before Lost tonight. Let me back up. I went to Urgent Care this morning to get my leg checked out since I still can't walk. Turns out I tore my calf muscle and fascia in my right leg. The good news is that I didn't rupture my achilles tendon, so I won't need surgery. The bad news is that it's going to be 4-6 weeks before I can even think about running, jumping, playing soccer, or anything else that I actually want to do with my leg. But I'm thankful because it could be worse. I have to keep reminding myself of that. Anyway, the doctor gave me a prescription for Percocet to help with the pain. I had some issues with nausea when I took Vicodin a few years back, so he thought Percocet would be a good alternative.
WRONG!
About forty-five minutes after taking it, I hit a brick wall of nausea and was completely laid up for the rest of the afternoon, petrified that I was going to throw up. Did I mention that I do NOT throw up? I do everything in my power to avoid it at all costs, no matter what. Even when I know I will feel better afterwards. No thank you. Anyway, today sucked. That's pretty much the point of the story. But I managed to get this shot off for this week's Emulation Challenge in My Face is My Canvas. Can you believe this is our 25th week of emulation challenges??? If you haven't already checked out the group and you have even the slightest interest in face art photography, you owe it to yourself to stop by. And for those of you who haven't played in a while...hey, we miss you! ;)
Ok, time to watch the rest of last week's Lost in preparation for tonight's episode. Michelle and Daynna, prepare for the onslaught of texts and BBMs.

The African Fish Eagle is a large bird of prey found throughout sub-Saharan Africa. It is known for its distinctive appearance and impressive hunting skills.
Adult African Fish Eagles have a brown body with a white head and tail, and a hooked yellow beak. They have powerful talons and large wings, with a wingspan that can reach up to 2 meters. They typically weigh between 2 and 4 kilograms.
African Fish Eagles are often seen near bodies of water, such as lakes and rivers, where they hunt for fish. They use their sharp eyesight to locate prey from a high perch, such as a tree or rock, and then swoop down to catch the fish with their talons. They are also known to steal food from other birds, such as ospreys and pelicans.
African Fish Eagles are monogamous and form long-term pair bonds. They build large nests in trees near the water, which they use for breeding and raising their young. Females lay 1-3 eggs, which hatch after about 6 weeks. Both parents take turns incubating the eggs and caring for the chicks.
Overall, the African Fish Eagle is a majestic bird of prey that plays an important role in the ecosystems of sub-Saharan Africa.
