Feet First

Ever notice that some bird go feet first while other go in head first while hunting for food? I have watched the eagle and the osphey with feet extended and pluck out fishes in one scoop. I watched as this eagle made several attempts before getting his meal.

One time I saw a bald eagle chase a osphey who had just caught a fish. What surprised me was how the eagle was able to fly upside down with feet extended and try to steal the fish from the osphey's feet. The fish fell back into the water to live another day.

I wonder what I am willing to go feet first into in my life? There will be time that I will miss the mark and have to try again. But with practice I will get what I am after.
