Awesome wildlife shot. Best time to shoot is the rain, clear and defined images. Deserved winning image.

Btw how long do they keep the fishies in their mouths before they eat them?


Thanks!
Easy enough to see them here in Iceland. They do not eat the fish themselves, they are bringing it in for their chicks which are in borrows in the grass.


What good parents ;)

Thanks.
