I almost peed my pants watching this video this morning. It is HIGHlarious! Stick with it, things get interesting at the 20 second mark and end up amazing at the end. Herons are awesome and kudos to my buddy Clay Taylor for an excellent capture of this behavior.
And that’s a young heron finessing its technique! You can still see downy feathers!
Birds are awesome, that is all.
Nice video Clay! Birding with Clay is a lot of fun. Just listen to the excitement in his voice. He was the same way about Goldfinches feeding on some thistle in Utah. That is true birding spirit.
That is an amazing video and a really cool hunting technique!! It’s stuff like this that make me happy to be a birder
haha oh man, I’m envisioning this heron slowly creeping into frames of any video on youtube. Instant meme.
VERY cool!

Am I the only one ready to set this to the music from 2001: A Space Odyssey? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWnmCu3U09w
That was amazing!
Like a dinosaur, a pliosaur sneaking up on a fish.
Great video, I love watching the Green herons!
That was awesome! I started laughing out loud as soon as I could see that beak coming in frame!
thanks for sharing, that was awesome!
Actually, I wanted to do the theme from “Jaws”, but Sharon said that sometimes YouTube blocks videos that have unauthorized copyrighted music on them.
