I was pleasantly surprised to see a Blue Heron fishing in the fish hatchery ponds yesterday (3/21/2014). Usually I don't see heron's around this area until late spring.

Amazing capture! That looks like a big fish (I must admit it's a pretty looking fish, do you know what kind it is?) caught and staring down its captor's long/skinny throat here! So could the Heron really manage to win the battle and gulp that whole thing down entirely okay? Does the fish put up a good fight, if eaten, does the unlucky prey get swallowed wriggling all the way as well?!

I believe its a koi, this is an old fish hatchery pond. And yes, they eat the fish whole! Thanks
