The eagle must be losing his senses, he obviously needs a herring aid.

I'm smiling, can you tell.

excellent Andy, I like that.

Just shows that even with talons that big and sharp it's not easy catching fish at high speed.

Is this a juvenile?

Great example of why 'honey-pots' can be worth their weight . . . great, unusual moment.

Cheers,

"Which way did he go george, which way did he go!" Super image. I've heard of seals keeping behind sharks to keep out of the way of the sharp end but this fish has taken it to the extreme!

A very different "fishing" shot. Like all fishermen this bird has a one that got away story to tell.

Great shot Andy. Got some big birds in Cheshire haven't you?

The bird is trying out the water and the fish is having a fly. Great shot and very entertaining.

You're supposed to throw the fish for the birds ....not at them!
Blinder and a giggle too.

Eagle is almost looking down thinking "WTF?"
