Yellow-crowned Night Heron prepares breakfast

Shot at 8:28am on 6/27/25 using my Nikon Z8 and 600mm PF lens at 20 fps. The challenge is to capture the right moment when the heron tosses the crawdad preparing to swallow the main body. It must remove the pincers prior to the final toss. I really like catching the pincer in his mouth as the crawdad was falling to the ground.
