Fantastic pictures!  I notice the alligator also has a fish in its mouth -- please tell me that wasn't after swallowing the heron.

No, it was just an unlucky fish.

Thanks, all. It was a nice way to spend several days after all the hectic months of work recently.
I'll post some others on the Photo thread.

I love birds of prey, if you got a snapshot of any, please post it!

The stories hang gliders tell of eagle attacks are worrying.

I don't see why pelicans aren't classed as birds of prey, it's just unfair discrimination because they have floppy feet.

Talk about bad timing...for the gliders. I'd imagine it's scary though...going about your buisness until struck from above like that. 

As for pelicans, I think it has to do with beaks and claws. Pelicans are...fishers Hardly as impressive.
