This Great Egret had just struck the "mother lode" with this fish. He spent a good 30 seconds trying to figure out how to down the whole thing in one gulp like he had with every other but smaller fish he had previously caught. I guess it wasn't an issue because not five seconds after he'd consumed the whole thing, the bird was back at hunting.
