Great capture. It's a good thing birds aren't large enough to prey on humans.
Here's a YouTube video of a great blue heron swallowing a rabbit (not for the squemish):

Try googling pelican eats pigeon for a number of examples...apparently they find pigeons to be tasty.

Heck of a way to go. Up until about a month ago , I thought they only fed on aquatic life.

Nice capture. The Egrets & especially the Great Blue Herons spend a lot of time in the fields below my ponds hunting voles.

Dunking is polite when dining on vole😲
Lubrication is needed to swallow the vole thing!

Great shots! Too many voles in the PNW anyway! Thanx for sharing.
