This is an osprey.

Maybe you've seen photos of eagles gracefully swooping down over a mountain lake and just kinda grazing it with their claws. That's how casuals fish.

Ospreys do not fuck around. They enter the water basically straight down, headfirst, except with their claws out in front.

And yeah, I think they're the only bird that knows how to twist fish face-forward to reduce drag as they fly them home.
