Saw this happening at Chew Valley Yesterday. Took a long time to swallow even with stretching it's neck....

That`s what happened in this instance Artdemole......must have taken at least 2-3 minutes to swallow the fish..and with straightening it`s neck....but glad I had the patience to get the shots as at that point I was mentally getting ready to go home.
