A Lava Heron eating a Ghost Crab. This was a interesting happening. The heron first stood perfectly still and stared in a hull in the sand for about 15 minutes. Then it pulled the crab lighting fast out. It removed the big claws one by one, before it is removed the small claws. Finally it swallowed the whole body, before it picked up the claws from the ground and ate them.
