Wildlife photographer Alan McFadyen's interest in capturing images started when he was a kid — when his grandfather, Robert Murray, took him to see the kingfisher nesting spot near Kirkcudbright, Scotland. The fact that the breathtaking lakeside location provided an awesome backdrop didn't hurt either.

The trips to see the kingfisher nesting spot made such a lasting impression on McFadyen that he made it the focus of his attention. Then, he got so obsessed with capturing the exact moment when a kingfisher dives into the water without a splash.

His grandfather got him interested in kingfishers.

Cats are one of the best hunters in the animal kingdom. Although some cat lovers cannot imagine their pampered "Garfield" cats running after prey, most cats would exhibit this wild hunting side. Cats love to feast on their favorites such as rats and birds, and some cat owners might be familiar with this "gift" from their pets.

Watch this stray cat in action as it catches the fish straight from the sea! It all happened so fast so don't blink around the 0:56 mark or you'll miss it.

Later on, the eagle calmed down and Michael was able to put his jacket on top of it. Everything was caught on camera since Michael set up his phone to record the footage....
