The fish were easy to see as they flew through the air, tossed about by the powerful water surges created by the Dolphins.
Most of the fish manage to flop back into the water but this one was about to be lunch.
The fish appears to be dead or knocked out.
But a moment later he leapt into the air…
and ended up in a Dolphin’s mouth.

Congratulations Ellen, you must be mighty pleased with those photos as I was in seeing them! I was so surprised to get that level of detail!
Thanks, Liz! I am pleased and it was so much fun to watch. I was closer than I wanted to be to get a good side perspective but they don’t always feed where you think they are going to. And they are fast!
Excellent series of shots. So very sharp!
Thanks! I was prepared for them to be a bit further upstream from me. It was a treat for them to come closer and to get them in focus.
