GREY HERON - The Rat Catcher 

Love herons, hate rats.

I am Dealing with a Rat infection in my garage, making progress, After watching this , I love the Heron so much

Ah rodents -- the hors d'oeuvres of the critter kingdom. Good bird.

So many rats and so few beautiful Herons.

Dinosaur catches a vermin.

i cannot properly express the satisfaction watching this

I have just seen something similar in Rochdale town centre. Heron in the river but looking at the vegetation on the bank. I then spotted a rat nearby and realised it was ratting! Sure enough, 5 minutes later it caught a young rat. Very opportunistic bird and it won't be going hungry any time soon!

People won’t complain about this person filming this but will complain about a stationary camera catching another bird attacking another birds nest or someone in the safari filming a lion catching an impala and eating it 😂

"A dinosaur versus our great, great, great etc. Grand daddy. battle." Analogy-wise. Respect both animals. They survived the K-band asteroid extinction. Are birds warm-blooded?

Why you cut out the best parts???

The heron is talented but inexperienced. You can tell because it doesn’t go to the water to use as dipping sauce.

I’ve seen Blue Jays and Mockingbirds attack and kill/eat small mice.

Pożyteczne ptaki .W wielu miastach w Europie by się przydały bo dużo szczurów jest ...!!! Nie doceniamy siły przyrody jako ludzie.

Clever bird

I think we’re going to need a bigger heron.

Interesting video. Thanks.

Amsterdam's Herons seem to eat just eggs and chickens of waterfowl, never saw them catch mice or rats, and there is plenty of them here, starting from Central Station onward. Why Don't they take a lesson or two from their English siblings? Should they came here to teach them how to do it? Maybe the Dutch ones should be informed how tasty and nutrient rat's meat is. Oh God, how much I dislike rats! Especially at 5 o clock in the morning, when I m going to catch my train, and they aren't shy at all in CS neighborhood. To be honest, I've seen a sensible decrease in rabbits, and I assume it is due to the seagulls, because they are gigantic and in great numbers around here, still no apparent change in rats' quantity, so I don't think they know yet how lekker those rodents are. How can we explain that to them? Should we transmit this very video on mega screens all around the city? PS: Paris suffer much more than we do in Holland, but having seen this with my own eyes doesn't comfort me the least...

We are more like the rat. Not so much like the heron.

i rather prefer Komodo dragons crocs and gators over this lol

Now if I could only replace our feral cats with this bird, that would be AWESOME! 🦔

Ma dobry obiad

jesus that must be excruciating

Il faut en mettre dans les rues de paris, ils auraient du boulot.

Quá hay👍👍🔔🔔

Or to Florida and start anywhere .

Have seen them eat rats ( remember rats are also same family as squiirels minus bushy tail ) Heron are the main reason baby ducklings are eaten and geese -If only they would stick to fish lol Seriously they have to eat since there is no supermarket .for wildlife .However what gets me is 80% of the public will love this yet be reviled were it a seagull since seagulls have a rotten press .Well filmed .My comment is for the" cute brigade " 👍🐀
