From an aerodynamics perspective this is a very complex move. Notice how the eagle flares its wings just before grabbing the fish, he needs to slow down just enough to catch his prey be he can't lose too much lift or he will end up in the water. As he swoops in, his wings make minute adjustments that are impossible to see in regular time. Finally, watch his head: it tracks the fish all the way until he has it in his claws, then snaps back up so he can continue level flight. This is an extraordinarily complex move, akin to doing a touch and go on an aircraft carrier.    Excerpt from BBC Nature's Great Events - "The Great Salmon Run"
