I am very impressed by this all action shot of a Heron plucking a startled looking Salmon from the water. The split second of time has been frozen into a slightly scary image of the ruthlessly efficient heron and the helpless fish.

I am surprised that so far it has attracted only six comments.

not only a superb shot but a sequence of an event that I would not have thought happened in nature. I would not have thought a heron capable of eating a salmon.A piece of natural history, very well done
