Crows are such amazing ecological generalists. For several years I've watched various birds in the Seattle area that have learned to pluck fish from the water, sometimes swooping and scooping, other times, hovering almost like a tern.
I'll try to get some footage with a proper tripod rig, but in the meantime here is some very jerky video that I shot with a hand-held 800mm lens.
