A Great Blue Heron Swallowing A Carp

[@deador9192]

The entire meal in one gulp! The joy of having an elastic gullet.

[@korea.festival]

Great... Awesome... Full watched. Thanks Have a happy day!

[@jefffraley7094]

Love these birds. They would fly in silently when we wade fished rivers in Virginia, snag lunch then fly off. Beautiful

[@Lrover16]

Well that was easier than I expected.

[@mythbuster4880]

[@gunlokman]

On his way back you can clearly see the heron thinking . . . "drat! what the hell am I going to do with this?"

[@HanginInSF]

[@philsman3694]

Good job, Mr. Heron!

[@65FullMoon83]

I've seen Herons, and Pelicans swallow Carp 3 times that size! Incredible!

[@lowellmiller6663]

It went down in one big GARP.

[@heronboy]

holy carp that's huge

[@mythbuster4880]

😂❤👍So simple, yet so drole...

[@ultimatemexicano3535]

Amazing footage! That looks like a huge fish (do you know what kind?) the bird caught! The fish was struggling, but the hungry Heron managed to fully consume (alive?!) it all okay? It looked like the unlucky thing was still desperately kicking inside too! I wonder, does the large fish stand any chance of escaping if eaten in that condition? Maybe it can turn around inside the elastic throat/stomach and has a chance of survival here.

[@marktrombley4844]

Talk about a big mouth, lol. But it git the job done.

[@markmoore4088]

A barred owl is hooting in the background.

Carp was an invader in American territorial waters. American bird just defending his waters.

[@abufaizramadhan]

How about the fish bone after days. Does it safe in bird's stomach.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Sure is.

[@gargould7186]

Ask your phone and it will tell you that the birds stomach has an acid that breaks down the bones and scales. 🥸

[@gullybop1695]

Didn't you mother ever teach you to chew your food first???

[@realsteel2572]
