KRUGER NATIONAL PARK, SOUTH AFRICA: THE MOMENT a cheeky African Fish Eagle stole a hungry crocodile’s next meal has been captured by a gob-smacked tourist. The stunning shots show the large seven-pound eagle swoop in low to the water’s surface to catch a fish before flying off again. A peeved crocodile can be seen just behind the eagle as it looks forlornly at its catch escaping in the bird’s talons. While the fish would have only been an appetiser for the hungry croc it looks like it would make a substantial meal for the crafty eagle. The snaps were taken in Lower Sabie Dam in the Kruger Nati
