Women Help Bird Choking on a Fish

Occurred on January 24, 2026 / Ormond Beach, Florida, USA

Info from Licensor: "My mom and I were on our walk this morning when we spotted what we thought was a dead seagull. We got closer… nope, not dead. Just a very dramatic bird apparently choking on an entire fish. Is that even a thing birds do? We looked at each other, decided we were now wildlife rescuers, and stepped in. After a minute of gentle teamwork, we managed to get the fish out. He sat there breathing hard, trying to pull himself together — honestly, same — and then a few minutes later he was back to normal like nothing happened. Such a wild, unexpected, very Florida moment. And honestly… pretty cool to witness. Credit: Stacey Booth"
