Thank You all very much for the comments. It took this bird quite a while to swallow that massive fish which gave me some time to adjust and wait for a lucky capture. I’m always happy when I’m in the right place at the right time.

Amazing capture! That looks like a giant fish staring deep down its captor's throat here! So does the bird really manage to win the battle and gulp that whole thing okay? Does the fish put up a good fight, if eaten does the unlucky prey get swallowed wriggling all the way down as well?!
