The Splash
This Skimmer was hunting for its prey and ended up splashing water up over his head which was an added bonus on this shot.

A bonus for sure. Beautiful.

He missed the fish but got plenty of the water wash. Neat shot.

Thanks Lyle. I didn’t realize that he had splashed like that until I looked at it on my computer.

Thanks David. Just wish that the action was still going on at the pond. Only a handful of birds there last Saturday. I’m guessing that they fished out the pond before it filled up again.
