The beautiful & dark side of Nature... That last scene where that young bird saved himself after parents push is epic... Emotional music with a lot of suspense and no competition to narration of sir David Attenborough...also superb work by the camera man

[@3winmundoanimal]

Nature has a way of showcasing both the beautiful and dark sides of life. In the scene you mentioned, the young bird's survival after being pushed by its parents was truly remarkable. The emotional music and suspenseful atmosphere created an unforgettable moment that was enhanced by Sir David Attenborough's narration. The camera work was also superb, capturing every detail of this incredible event. It's a reminder of the complexities and wonders of nature that are constantly unfolding before us.

[@PorkChopJones]

I cannot even imagine the amount of time and patience it must of took to get all those amazing shots. David has an amazing gift of story telling along with insightful narration. That is unequaled and keep me captivated. As well as this amazing fish that follows flying birds while underwater! Who would have thought that at least along this portion of ocean the role of predator and prey is reversed.

The fish's ability is insane, but you should never underestimate birds! Our crew got on camera another "super fish" that may not look that special, but it's a super-intelligent fish. The footage we got proved to us that the archerfish is a genius in math and physics. They make complex calculations about light refracting in water before shooting down prey with fast water jets. Even at 2 meters away, it's quite exciting to see it!

Fish brains are closer to analog computers than digital computers. In WW2 we used simple analog computers for the same thing that these fish do, ballistic trajectories. Prior to microchips we had to do these things without doing lots of complex calculations.

[@3winmundoanimal]

Fish and birds are two very different creatures that have unique adaptations to their environments. Fish are adapted to life underwater, with streamlined bodies and fins for swimming, while birds are adapted for flying with lightweight but strong bones and feathers. Each has its own set of advantages depending on the environment they live in. It's not a matter of which is better, but rather which is better suited for their respective habitats.

[@3winmundoanimal]

Thank you for bringing that to my attention. It's true that sometimes filmmakers use different clips to create a more dramatic effect, and it's important to recognize when that's the case. Nonetheless, the footage they capture is still incredible and provides us with a window into the natural world that we wouldn't otherwise have. The hunting behavior of giant Trevally is indeed remarkable, and seeing them in action can be both awe-inspiring and humbling.
