Every once in a while you run across a strange encounter -- like this battle between a Double-crested Cormorant and an eel at Mill Creek Point on the hackensack River last week.

The encounter ended when the cormorant dived, then surfaced without the eel.
Awesome pics...! Thanks for posting...

Great photos!
