Catch of the day by inthecloud5

Catch of the day

We stopped by the bay to watch the seals and saw this diving duck appear with an eel (bird book says it's a male red breasted merganser)

Just a few seconds later an eider duck swam across and pestered the duck until it dropped the fish, I don't know why, maybe it was just chasing it away.

Poor duck swam away without his dinner.

Getting online here is difficult but will connect when I can, thanks for all your comments and apologies for lack of mine :)
