Hi everybody. I do apologize for the viewers if I didn't meet their expectations. I must admit that my filming wasn't up to par to many critics. However, their reactions and negative comments would make me a better youtuber someday. I am a novice and I will learn from my mistakes. My camera was only a couple of weeks old when I filmed this and I am still learning the basics of it (zooming in and out🙃). In addition, I was caught horribly surprised with what I saw. It happened in an instant. I was carried away and got so excited because I never expected that a heron would eat something as big as that. I also didn't have my tripod with me. Hence, I wasn't ready. I always watch that heron on a nature reserve near my house and I always see that heron mingle with those birds. I've seen the heron ate fishes, amphibians, small mammals, reptiles, insects, crustaceans, molluscs, worms and small birds. But that was the first and the last time I saw the heron attacked and ate a bird as big as that. I guess the heron got very hungry and ran out of choice. I didn't realize that the heron has a snake-like throat and a dinosaur-like digestive system. Indeed, it was such a rare incident. To those who complained about my intro, editing and directing please don't take it seriously. I intend to classify my movie as a low- budget-horror-comedy film🤣. As to the issue if it was a duck or a duckling, again, I do apologise if you believe that it was only a duckling🐥. It was not my intention to deceive. I respect your convictions. But one thing is for sure, it took about 15 minutes before the heron was able to swallow the bird completely. The duck was dipped several times in the water to make it softer and easier to swallow. This also made the duck look smaller because the feathers had contracted. (Imagine a cat that has been submerged in water). Having seen that incident in person, I can conclude that it wasn't a baby duck. As an amateur, this to me is one of the most if not the most memorable wildlife moments that I have ever experienced in my life. At any rate, to all those who defended and appreciated my work I thank you all for your support and open mindedness. On the other hand, to those who gave some harsh comments, I'll take those as challenges to ameliorate my skills and be a better amateur filmmaker someday. Honestly, I never expected that this video would create some sort of controversy and mixed reactions. In spite of that, I've learned that many viewers gave this video a thumb's 👎 not because of my filmmaking but because of the duck's agony and brutal death🙂. Anyway, thank you all for watching and God Bless 🙏! P.S. Have you ever seen a heron ate a bird bigger than the one on this video??? If so, was it captured/filmed in 4K Ultra High Definition???
Great capture. A chance encounter of brutal nature at work. Ignore any negativity. Even thumbs down boost your algorithm prospects. Any engagement with the vid counts. I had a similar experience which I also captured and will post up soon. I only had 400mm lens so a little further away than your footage. The heron stalked and caught a Water Vole... down it went in one. Nature is so very brutal. I keep thinking of getting the p1000... video quality seems fantastic even at the long end of the lens. Quite remarkable for such a small sensor. All the best.... Steve.
Sorry Redzer_14, Not my intention to insult you but the camera work is not the finest. I wasn't expecting David Attenborough-esq footage but more stable shots without the zooming in out would have allowed the audience to appreciate the detail in the footage more. I do think the music is unnecessary and actually takes away from the 'nature' theme you have going on here. You actually miss the main part of the video which is the Heron eating the Duck which was disappointing. Bar that, I think it is really good footage. Thank you for sharing 👍🏽
There is something repulsive in the slow death of a creature that suffers so much and is still not dead after getting swallowed alive ... these birds are fucking relentless. I had no idea herons were such gruesome eaters. Their beauty belies their horrific appetites
I see others complain about the camerawork as well, I want to do that too. Rule: keep your camera still. Rule 2: keep the object in focus. Rule 3: don't use zoom all the time. You can't watch this video without getting sick, and not because of the content but because of the way you tried to film it.

Herons are the Joey Chestnuts of the bird kingdom. They even dip their food in water like he does with hot dogs. I imagine storks sizing up other animals. "Yeah, I can probably eat that."
That's a large duckling a heron in incapable of swallowing a large adult duck. Besides that large duckling was already badly injured before the heron took it. A heron wouldn't mess with a healthy duckling that size. As you can see the heron could barely get the large duckling down its throat.
to complete the circle, next can you show a video of an alligator eating a whole Great Blue Heron, in one bite and swallow? In 4K Ultra High Definition, please.
Guys can yall stop hating, I just saw a reply from him on a comment saying that he is new to filming. And also, he never claims to be a professional so this was not meant to be a 'professional' video

Herons eat anything...I am waiting for one to eat a squirrel. Chipmunk is no problem, and a large rat is no problem, so squirrel is not out of the question.
Sorry if I missed the initial catch. The heron was covered by tall grasses when he captured the duck which unfortunately I didn't see😔. I heard some very loud duck scream and splashes of water which happened for a couple of minutes. An indication that there was a struggle on the part of the duck. The next thing I saw was the duck was already on the heron's beak. The wing's feathers might have fallen off as a result of the struggle. But the wings itself were still present before it got eaten. However, both wings looked smaller because it got soaked in water. So my next mission is to see the initial catch🙂. Luckily I saw the main swallow😉.

Can someone please tell me how to tell the difference between a grey heron VS a great blue heron ...like how you can visually spot the differences??

Great blue herons are found throughout most of North America and into Central America and the Caribbean, while gray herons are native to Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, and parts of central and southern Asia.
Nice video, the camera kept focussing the background as it was more contrasty, you should use manual focus and the single focus setting, so that the camera does not focus the more contrasty back ground.what camera did you use ?
Cheers buddy. I just had this awesome camera 3 months ago and I am still learning especially on my RUclips channel. As you can see I only have few subscribers😔I'm still a novice youtuber🙂
Damn, nature! You scary! Side note: Don't ever let these birds get bigger than us humans, nor let any technology dat can enlarge or shrink fall within da hands of any1 who intends 2 shrink u near a heron! Yeah! Stupid side note, but... mm-hmm!
The ducks name was Done but that other bird changed it to dinner. If you wan see something messed up Google the deer that ate a bird, you'll never look at Bambi the same way ever again. Bambi's a psychopath.
The duck has wings but already without feathers. I believe the heron aimed at the duck's wings first so that the duck can't fly and escape. Moreover, it would be easier for the heron to swallow the duck without feathers on its wings. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to film it. The heron caught the duck in a pond covered with tall grasses. There was already a long struggle before the heron carried the duck out. That was the time I started filming.
MR. ZOOM - Some suggestions as you have been lucky enough for the RUclips algorithm to push this as it has 18K+ views already. That intro. It's nauseating, the constant zooming in and out and then flipping it. No, just stop that...I get it, your channel name is MR. ZOOM but stop it. Your footage - Get yourself a tripod as your footage is way too shaky. Your footage par 2- Do not zoom in so much. Yes, i realize once again your channel name is MR. ZOOM but you zoom in too much, then you have to pan the camera as you've zoomed in so far that when ever the subject moves a little they go outside of frame. Your editing- So it's not great but this video shouldn't be NINE minutes long. It should have been cut down to maybe 3 minutes and that ending of stills was pretty bad. Music- I guess it was ok other than again, the ending part was pretty terrible. This is MY opinion. I'm not trying to be an ahole to you. You got yourself in position to be able to witness this so that takes time and patience which I can respect but you might as well get the most of your opportunity. I suspect many others feel the same way because gaining 60 subs off that many views just doesn't cut it.
Herons are the most beautiful of all birds, but their eating habits also remind me more than any other birds that they are basically lizards with wings and feathers.
Then you ain't seen nothing. Look up their cousins the storks as well as gulls, petrels and skuas if you want to see more bird gore. All those birds have rather messy eating habits. :)
@@harrylarry4672 LOL....Oh, I am sure they do, but can you imagine? Must be one hell of a digestive system for all these animals that just swallow their food whole.
@@harrylarry4672 Or strong stomach acid that dissolves the bones. Some vultures have a stomach acid of ph 1.5. Bearded vultures have a stomach acid less than 1. Hyrdochloric acid has a ph of 1.1
This has been floating around in my recommended section for a few days now, so I watched it. Almost as many thumbs down as thumbs up, only 100 subscribers, and yet, 58,000 views. The algorithm makes it hard to get noticed as a small channel, but pushes content that people clearly don't like. The algorithm is broken....
Te algorithm always pushes the content that appeals to a large audience with high audience retention rate . This video is definitely one . It doesnt matter channel has one subscriber or 100k
Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the actual catch because the heron went inside the tall thick grass so l let down my camera. After a couple of minutes I heard a loud scream from the duck and at the same time a loud splashing sound in the pond. So I immediately rushed to the scene and was so shocked to see the duck was already at the heron's beak. ---Thanks for watching and for your comment.🙏

@@liujol69 the zooming in and out is not a compliment dude. But you already knew that probably.

All of the above:))
@@bloodydove5718 great point. Although food is subjective, you can tell good food without being a michelin chef
The only thing worse than the fate of that duckling is the opening music.
He was after the duck himself crispy duck with noodles
I disagree...is the jerky overzoomed out-of-focus video
Imagine if, in a couple of hours, that heron goes 💩 on your windshield.
Video should be called: Camera guy misses the moment when heron starts eating duck whole 😜
I believe he threw the duck to him, what would explain the missing wings and no footage of the heron ambushing the prey.
Now I know why the ducks by my house go mad when the heron is there. They all stay by the swans. I thought he was looking for fish.
Herons are primeval creatures that will eat anything they can catch.
Was filmed at West Park Meadow Nature Reserve?
Filmed at Spindleberry Nature reserve
Nature is brutal, great capture. 👍 You got the shot, nice job. 👍
Ducks rats snakes birds rabbits
Must really be a croc 🐊 with wings..!
_boy_ , i sure do love NATURE SHOWS
No surprise. The Heron as all birds are from the prehistoric era...Raptor!
Which Raptor?
my thoughts exactly
Does anyone know how long until the heron needs to eat again. That was a good size younger duck.
There is something repulsive in the slow death of a creature that suffers so much and is still not dead after getting swallowed alive ... these birds are fucking relentless. I had no idea herons were such gruesome eaters. Their beauty belies their horrific appetites

What's that coming over the pond, is it a monster, is it a monster ? Yes Daffy it is, run. Oh, too late, damn !
The real Jungle Book
No TURDUCKEN this Christmas, just HERUCK....
Amazing how they can digest bones, feathers and all. I cant imagine.
They prob just poop em out.
@@harrylarry4672 LOL....Oh, I am sure they do, but can you imagine? Must be one hell of a digestive system for all these animals that just swallow their food whole.
Well momma said don't waste your food
@@harrylarry4672The bits of the prey that herons can’t digest, usually get coughed up as a “pellet”.
@@harrylarry4672 Or strong stomach acid that dissolves the bones. Some vultures have a stomach acid of ph 1.5. Bearded vultures have a stomach acid less than 1. Hyrdochloric acid has a ph of 1.1
Herons are bad ass predators
How does a heron kill a duck with his beak?
It's like a sharp pointed dagger🙂. Thanks for watching 🙏
I hunt grey herons in falconry and i have avenged this little fella
Can you eat them???
Welcome to Jurassic Park
I wonder if the heron was washing the duck cause it shit itself.
a monster....not eat but swallow
I've seen this live near to where i live.. it was a baby duck though and was swallowed in seconds. That's some torture for the poor duck there
This has been floating around in my recommended section for a few days now, so I watched it. Almost as many thumbs down as thumbs up, only 100 subscribers, and yet, 58,000 views. The algorithm makes it hard to get noticed as a small channel, but pushes content that people clearly don't like. The algorithm is broken....
Te algorithm always pushes the content that appeals to a large audience with high audience retention rate . This video is definitely one . It doesnt matter channel has one subscriber or 100k

When you *really* get tired to have a big meal ! I bet it got a nap after the 'record' 😁😄😊
Damn, nice footage. Did you happen to see it catching the duck?
Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the actual catch because the heron went inside the tall thick grass so l let down my camera. After a couple of minutes I heard a loud scream from the duck and at the same time a loud splashing sound in the pond. So I immediately rushed to the scene and was so shocked to see the duck was already at the heron's beak. ---Thanks for watching and for your comment.🙏
Must be one heck of a mouth on that heron
The heron was dipping the duck in the water like it was some kind of sauce.
The heron was dipping the duck in the water to make it softer and easier to swallow🙂
I couldn't watch this in real life I would help the duckling out I know the herons gotta eat but not on my watch!
My gosh, the Heron is vicious
yeah...but the Bald eagle makes a meal of these Herons
@@remyogun8270 The Bald Eagle can make a meal with a lot of animals
Heron just saved 1000nd dragonflies!
Wow!!!! Wat a throat he or she have!
Oh yeah! Python-like throat🙂
Crap, can the heron chew ?
these creatures eat everything, hey where is BILLY????
