It was hard to keep track. Chewing, thrashing, fish jumping, photographers jumping, all kinds of pandemonium.

Great fun… from 10 feet up.
This was very funny. I have been meaning to publish this for a week or so… here it is.
Think of a bird flying full speed into a shallow pond of water. Oh yeah, the bird is almost as big as you are. And like you he doesn’t want to fall on his head, in the water.
And… momentum is pushing him forward, tripping all along the way. He must have covered half a mile ( .8 k) trying to stop.
Click, or double tap, any image below to view the gallery… I tried to cut down the number of images but had to keep these.
Give him credit for keeping on his feet, just kept tripping and skipping until he slowed.
This is not a full adult Wood Stork, but still none of the others have this problem LOL.
