Description
Eared Grebe (Podiceps nigricollis) with fish (topsmelt, Atherinops affinis), Huntington Beach, California
So you think the fish would have been too big to swallow? Actually, the grebe had no problem gulping the fish down, head first.

Amazing capture! Still that fish looks pretty big for the bird as its caught and staring down its captor's throat here! So does the Grebe 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?!
