On our recent trip to Costa Rica, I filmed this Bare-throated Tiger Heron. Gorgeous though he is, he can look like a cross-eyed Keith Richards. And the poor fella looks like someone shoved a funnel, narrow end first, into his throat.

Green Herons Feeding Juvenile Offspring

Great Blue Heron gives up Gar to juvenile Bald Eagle.
A Great Blue Heron caught a good sized fish, a Gar. The only trouble is that Gars have teeth like alligators, and herons usually swallow their catch head first. Uh oh. Then a juvenile Bald Eagle decided he would take the fish. Okay, says the heron. Who’s gonna argue with a bird that’s got 400 pounds of pressure per square inch in his talons?

Green Heron Feasting
Any Green Heron ever born could put a karate master to shame. They have perfect balance and, like all predators, they wait, frozen, for prey. These wading birds are only about 18 inches tall, but skill and speed, not size, enables them to snap fish out of a pond.

Bird Movies by Jo, birdmoviesbyjo.com
Green Herons have clodhoppers for feet. But strong, graceful clodhoppers. You’d accept size twenty shoes too if you could be that surefooted.
