A wildlife photographer was in the right place at the right time to take a series of very interesting images illustrating unexpected heron behavior: A grey heron (Ardea cinerea) catching, drowning, and consuming what looks like a young rabbit. Herons will eat all types of small vertebrates, but this rabbit seems quite large but apparently manageable. According to the Mail Online, “Wildlife photographer Ad Sprang captured the dramatic images in Vianen, Holland.” These images were taken in 2006, but I’ve just now come across them via a tweet from “burdr” on Twitter.

Incredible, although we don’t freak out when we see a hawk do that, but the pelican was quite a site.
