On April 12, Doc Jon discovered the bird he took photos of in Madeira Beach was carrying a shark in its mouth – that was also carrying a fish.

"I go home, and I open it up and see (the photo) and I saw the tail first on the fish and realize it was a shark tail," Jon said, according to weather.com. "And then I zoom in and I'm like, 'Holy crap, that's a shark.' And then I see the fish in the mouth ... I just couldn't believe I had gotten that picture."

Jon told weather.com that the osprey was flying 400 feet in the air when he took the photo, and that he was lucky to get a clear shot.
