Western Mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) compete for a small Ramshorn Snail (family Planorbidae) in pond at the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center, in Houston, TX, USA. I think it's interesting that the small Mosquitofish wait for the big Mosquitofish to lose interest before going in to pick at the shell.
Maybe it's just the fact that the World Cup is going on right now, but the competition for the Snail reminds me a bit of soccer / football.
