I don't know why the lower part of the beak is longer - probably to use as a spoon or shovel to pick up the prey from water.

One for this Monday!

This is a great profile of Mr Beak, and I don't think I would want to be on the receiving end of it. You did good on this one Raj. tigs=^..^=

Good profile..The beak would have snapped off...A local wildlife park here had one similar and they manufactured a fibreglass bill for it...R.

Very good closeup and nice detail so we can see that beak.

In human and dental terms, this might be considered a bit of an over-bite problem:)...super closeup and detail on this unusual shot.

I think nature knows what to do, but you also made a wonderful beak closeup, Raj.

Raj, in your narrative and the next comments I saw many options to explain the reason for this snapped off beak. I don't know which is the right one. This also doesn't matter, because your goal was to provide us with a suitable photo for Manic Monday M(²), and you did an excellent job in doing this.
