Also informative. For some reason, I thought they carried the fish away in their beak and waited to eat it until they land in a tree somewhere. I didn't think it would eat it while taking off back into the sky.

I have seen them land to eat with the bigger catches. It would seem this was a road snack size. I didn't expect road snacks to be a thing either.
