@marksmithphotos: One of the most common questions I get asked. Do black skimmers ever catch fish? I think this video will answer the question and if you stick around until the end, you’ll see the one that got away.

Do they ever catch a fish? Wouldn’t they all be dead if they didn’t? Rarely does a wild animal do a repetitive task and get no results, (unless there is some other influence).

We got to fish next to a colony of Black Skimmers in West Galveston Bay in June. They just stayed there 40-50ft away from us the entire time. Beautiful birds, and so light they appear to defy gravity.

I was wondering what happens when they encounter larger fish - catch and release!
