Triangulating Heron

Another Heron, another unique hunting method. This Little Blue Heron would triangulate, bending his neck to one side like in this image and then shifting to the opposite direction. He would flip back and forth in both directions multiple times, apparently trying to determine the exact location of his prey. Once his prey was located he would strike with deadly accuracy. J.
