It was amazing to watch. It looked to be moving for a while. It was very strange! That fish was huge but was no match for the heron!

That looks like a huge (do you know what kind?) fish staring down its captor’s throat!<br /><br />So the bird was really able to win the struggle and gulp down that big fish okay?? Does the prey put up a good fight, if eaten, does the unlucky fish get swallowed wriggling/alive all the way as well?!<br /><br />-KyleUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038770845184022437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-30721861819589114792011-04-16T16:02:02.534-04:002011-04-16T16:02:02.534-04:00That's a super sized Gulp for sure! great sequ...That's a super sized Gulp for sure! great sequence!Susan Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04155106135649887676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-9543243007907907822011-04-13T11:38:19.121-04:002011-04-13T11:38:19.121-04:00had to laugh when i saw this post! i did one a fe...had to laugh when i saw this post! i did one a few weeks ago that was almost identical! and yes, positioned it facing towards him and down it went!!!TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510099344729038541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-15206410221839044582011-04-13T07:58:03.717-04:002011-04-13T07:58:03.717-04:00"I can't believe he ate the whole thing&q..."I can't believe he ate the whole thing" - Oh my ..... that was awesome!Kerri Farleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617128767655910810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-39684876502181929162011-04-13T01:00:05.706-04:002011-04-13T01:00:05.706-04:00...hehehe!
