Steaming North in the Arabian Sea, about 100km East of Oman and we have Masked Booby following us flying around the bow looking for flying fish taking off from the bow wave. When the bird spot a flying fish the dive and just before reaching the surface they get out of the dive flying after the flying fish.
I saw the Masked Booby land on the water with the fish in their bill. TOO FAR AWAY FOR ANY GOOD PICTURES!!!!! Depending on the size of the fish there seemed to be a bit of a struggle for the bird before it could swallow the fish.
I could see the Masked Booby rolling in the water, and I really don´t know if it was struggling to swallow the fish or if the bird just had a bath
