A Black Skimmert super glide path for breakfast

Black Skimmer fishing for breakfast on Blackpoint Wildlife drive in Merritt Island WMA. I notice the perfect wake behind the beak which I had never seen before. The lake was perfectly calm making the shot even more exciting. I spent nearly an hour leaning against the car with two friends just enjoying the spectacle.
