Gulp
A great egret from earlier this week has a bemused expression on his face since apparently the fish he just swallowed went down sideways and appears to be a bit stuck.
He eventually got it down fine but things were rather interesting for a few minutes.
The poor thing. He does look quite a bit uncomfortable there. Great photo, Phil.
I just hate when that happens!
That is a beautiful bird with a very worried expression!
How they get all those fish down that long neck is nothing short of remarkable.
Perfect description in one word!! He does look a tad panicked, doesn’t he?
It is so amazing, the shear volume these birds can swallow.
Don’t you hatethat when something goes down the wrong way.
Imagine how the Fish feels LOL.
Beautiful Bird and photo!
