What's Jim got his eye on then?
The Pom with it's eye on alternative sustenance - fresh fish!!
That bill is a perfectly designed instrument for opening up 'bodies' - effectively, a can opener and within moments, it was 'tuck in' time.....
Get stuck in then - the tastiest bit is towards the tail!
Having had your head in and out of a fish's body cavity for 30 mins or so - what next? A wash and freshen up of course......
A quick flap and.... clean as a whistle!
The Pom then drifted downstream on the now rapidly ebbing tide before eventually flying back and foraging about on the beach upstream - it was still there at dusk....
Quite a day then and with the liklihood of witnessing such a spectacle again pretty remote - certainly one to remember! (The Glossy Ibis bonus too.....)
