I have never seen anything like this before. Coot caught a fish. Didn't even try to swallow it whole as most birds who hunt fish would. He gave it violent shakes to break it up a bit and then nibbled and swallowed the smaller bits.
I had too big a lens on really and clipped a few shots here and there, but no time to strap on a smaller lens. You can see the half eaten fish in the second shot.
