Black Skimmers are known for their rocket fast acrobatics along the waters surface. I caught a new side of these birds.

Below a Skimmer flew in fast, and suddenly came to almost a complete halt. He flew slowly in and around a small flock Greater Yellowlegs. The small birds continued feeding paying no attention to the larger bird.

Of course after a while the Skimmer turned back to turbo and blew out of there.
