“It was unbelievable to see the bird trying to digest that big fish – it kept arching and bending. At first, I didn’t understand what it was doing, until it began ejecting the undigested salmon,” said shopkeeper Pétur Alan Guðmundsson who captured a series of photographs of a European shag attempting to eat whole salmon.
Pétur Alan spotted the shag by Hróarslækur, a river located near the village of Hella in south Iceland, past Wednesday.
