 I saw this Great Cormorant swimming around and diving. Something white was in it's mouth, I thougt it had grabbed some litter, but when I looked into the camera I saw it was some kind of a Dab fish.
It's amazing it could swallow it, the fish is wider than it's head!

I know those photos are of poor quality, but as I see this as a unique moment I have to show it here.

The photos are taken in low light at ISO 1600, f/5.6 and 1/60sec. freehand with Canon EF L 300mm lens plus 1.4 extender. Photos are cropped.

Distance to bird is approx. 70 meters / 76 yards.
