Always sad to see any wildlife in trouble like this.
Photographically, this has many of the same issues as your Great Blue Heron in Avian: the light here is not your friend; there's a noticeable light halo surrounding the neck, head, and beak.

Nice catch!
Are you sure the bird is in trouble, though?
I've seen ahningas play with and throw around gobs of old net like this - possibly attracted by the fishy smell - but they then discard it when they lose interest.
At any rate, congrats on the EP!
