Amazing capture here too! That looks like a big fish (can you see it thrashing about inside the pouch?) caught and staring down its captor's throat! The young bird must be hungry, but that looks like a formidable opponent! So could the immature pelican really manage to win the battle and gulp that whole thing down entirely okay? Does the fish put up a good fight, if eaten, does the unlucky prey get swallowed wriggling all the way as well?!
