“Do You Like My Fish?!”

This egret must have been very proud of his catch! He stood up straight and tall and took a moment to show me his fish…then made sure I got a good look at it before he gulped it down.

Giraffe! With a bill :). Sweet picture, love those eyes. That is a cute, poor, little fish, too.

  Giraffe with a bill! Ha! I didn’t think of that, good one!
  Yes sometimes you do have to feel a bit bad for the poor little fishies. 😦

Yes, yes I do like your fish. This goes well with Andrew’s recent post “BAD goes head to head”. Nice shot, Phil.

This is a bizar photo, looks almost unreal. It would be impossible staging it. Funny.

  That’s what I liked about the photo, the straight on look of the egret combined with it’s impossibly long neck had a rather comical effect I thought.

Great showoff pic, Phil! That fish looks as though it knows its fate is sealed. 😦

  Well I sort of, for the most part, spared you the full up close and personal sad fishie face on this one Sylvia, but yes, it is not a good day for our little friend in the sea. 😦

The egret’s neck looks as long as a giraffe’s in this photo!

Gosh that is a long ride down for the fish he’ll be glad to get to the end of his journey.
