Pied Billed Grebe

This is one little bird whose stomach is definitely bigger than his eyes. I watched as he swallowed that fish whole and then started diving again for seconds.

You can almost feel the determination in its posture, that focused intensity as it works the catch into position....great shot and timing! V
