This was shot as a 12 shot sequence lasting just over a second, though the hit and grab took less that 1/2000th of a second but it shows just how fast these Herons and Bitterns are when it comes to fishing.

Awesomely captured time rendition.
 
Nicely done! He's caught himself a nice smallish bluegill...tasty...plentiful....one of my favorite fish to catch as a boy...
 
Wow! Really neat!
 
Cool. I suppose they could do that to a human if provoked...
 
They could put that beak through a side of beef They are not to be trifled with.

I hear ya and they're good eating, too! I used to go fishing with my grandparents a lot and my grandpa inadvertently taught me to use fireflies for night time blue gill fishing because they would light up under water, attracting the bluegills within seconds. I slayed them suckers! :icon_king:
 
I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and we have no fireflies. We used to use either earthworms or nightcrawlers under a bobber. Bluegill are hard little Fighters.
