Do Not Mess With Fish 18

and you thought fish were fun, well these roach wish they had not!
On the attack ... pike chases roach, top, while kingfisher makes his escape

A KINGFISHER flies off with its catch — while a pike leaps out of the water as it chases young roach. The magic moment was captured by Brian Macfarlane at the Strumpshaw Fen reserve near Norwich. Brian, 73, said: “I spotted the roach jumping but never knew where they would appear. Then I saw the kingfisher. The photo was a pure fluke.” What a great once in a life time picture.
