Very hungry Grey heron caught in action.

I normally only shoot cars, but i shot this recently.
Apparently i haven't paid a lot of attention at biology class since i didn't new they did this.

Simple photo.

Very nice series! I have never seen them eat a rat! But when your hungry!

excellent series, thats a mouth full for sure, Well done! I notice the rat was wet before he ate it, did he drown it to stop it's moving?

Cool, I have never seen one eat a rat either. Great moments to catch!

That's great. Never seen it either.
Is that a great blue heron? You said its a grey.
I don't know the differences.

That is a fantastic series. I never knew a Heron would take a rat.

Never knew it either! Incredible captures! Thanks for sharing.

Great sequence. I think these guys will eat just about anything that they can fit down their throat.

A great series of images, Heron eat very many things, I have seen them take Rats, Lizards, ducklings and Moorhen, and there is a series of shots of one with a fairly big Rabbit http://www.youtube.com​/watch?v=bWZqHUYpp84

Fantastic series Wesley.

I love it Wess!
Talk about being in the right place at the right time. I guess protein is protein whether is comes w/fins or fur. That heron could probably find a snack in my back yard as well -
You did an excellent job of capturing all that, including the drink of water to top it off. Bravo!
