Anything and everything about non-human animals.

Rules:

  1. Posts should be relevant to non-human animals, including articles (news or just interesting facts), pictures (OC only but the animals need not be your pets), or text posts.
  2. Keep things civil. Don't insult other users or their pets. Do not post content that promotes animal abuse (this does not include content, like news, that portrays abuse in a negative light).
  3. Follow site-wide rules

From Albert Lavallee

I think it is fairly unique to photograph a fish jumping out of the water to catch a Honeybee, but it is certainly unusual when two Green Sunfish try for the same bee.

Lake Waurika WMA, SW Oklahoma, USA.

Canon R5, Canon RF 200-800mm IS lens, Tripod.

Settings, ISO 12800 (yes, it was before Sunrise and cloudy) Tv 1/1600sec, Av 9.0, lens at 432mm.

I've stepped on a few bee mines as a kid. Would not recommend!

Lower fish: loses free lunch, gains comfy sofa.
