Shoebill gives duck a lift - Telegraph
"With the 4ft bird towering over it, the duck started quacking and flapping its wings. But the Shoebill simply picked up the duck, moved it out of the way and continued on its way. The pictures were captured by 51 year old amateur photographer Mark Kay, at the San Diego Wild Animal Park, USA. Mr Kay said he spotted the Shoebill standing alone and immediately grabbed his Canon 1DS camera and started shooting. "I was getting my camera out of the bag when i started to hear the ducks quacking. I immediately started shooting," he said. "I thought the Shoebill was going to eat the duck but soon realised he was moving him out of the way. "I suspect the duck moved into his personal space."" - April Buchheit from Bookmarklet
