Wow..a totally awesome capture of a totally awesome capture! In addition, the unusual, watery and precarious perch adds a lot to the interest! #1204519

Great Capture.
To say they are BOTTOMLESS does not begin to explain their capacity to eat & eat & eat and always seem as if they are starving!!!!!

Happy Shooting
