FISH FIGHT
FINALLY catching a meal, a pair of great white egrets fight over their dinner. Caught up in a scramble with a number of other birds, each one is eager to claim ownership of the unlucky fish. This funny food fight was captured by Belgian psychologist Marc Costermans, 49, after he noticed the clash taking place at the Kiskunsagi National Park, Hungary. ‘This winter most of the lake was frozen over, with only a little spot left for birds to catch fish,’ says Marc, of Walhain, Belgium.
