Not too much to say. Great Blue Heron caught a big trout, stabbed it a couple of times, took it to the bank and swallowed it whole!

Mindboggling shooting 💙💙💙💙💙 - but if the reverse ever happens and you capture it (A big trout catching a great blue heron, I would really appreciate an instant message )

Great sequence. They'll try to swallow almost anything no matter how large. They usually get it down.

Great images, it is amazing what these guys can swallow, I have seen then spear large frogs, that beak is quite the weapon.

We have had to rescue geese and ducks that were caught up in fishing line - not an easy task! So far this has not been required for GBHs but it will be a dangerous task if ever necessary.
