Heron with Catch
Ardea herodius

As I watched the heron, it would repeatedly shake its head with the fish. At the time, I thought it was trying to make sure the fish was really dead, but upon looking at the pictures I realized the fish was stabbed pretty well through the back.

Location: Crescent Harbor, Sitka, Alaska
