| Comment | I have chosen this as its a unique moment of feeding when we can actually see a very large bird with mouth open consuming tiny fish a bit like a whale eats plankton. The light adds an extra dimension as it shows up the veins in the bill and adds a sparkling catch-light to the eye. Technically it is sharp and well exposed with an uncluttered background.
