It's not at the Chinese Gardens for sure, but all the dead floating tilapia have been cleared.

A stitched sequence:

I think can barely make out the floating fish in the water before it was picked up by the WBSE .....

The decomposed fish is breaking up so badly, the eagle can only get crumbs of it .....
