Black Crown Heron catches gopher and uses rib bone for bait

[@robbernath]

Was kind of cute watching the bird almost skipping along so proud of himself carrying that rib bone in his beak, almost as if to say, "Oh boy... I can't wait to see what I'm going to catch with this!" 😉

Birds have been known to use bait to catch prey so it's very possible that is what the heron was doing with the rib.

I have seen videos of Green Herons using bait so it seems reasonable to me too.
