HI ALL:
I have a big fish/bird story for you! Yesterday I was birding a manmade
estuary here on Bainbridge Island, WA when I noticed a large fish trapped
in the estuary by the falling tide. It slowly swam around the estuary and
from time to time it would chase/ scare up the mallards swimming near by.
I reported it to the guy who developed the estuary and this morning he
told that the fish was a Spiny Dogfish (Shark)! has anyone else heard of a
dogfish shark going after birds??
