    in my head that was a little romance. the turtle totally dug that bird until he realized she was DEADLY.

    At first i was thinking the turtle was like "No don't make me fall into the water!" Great footage but what was that noise at the end?

    It looks like the heron is using a bit of bread as bait to attract fish. Look at how it drops the bread (or something) into the water, then watches intently for any attracted fish.

    Great footage.

    Thats exactly was it is. It's a green heron and from what I know (and it's very possible I'm wrong, hehe), this act has only been recorded a few hundred times, less on film. So, congratz to the filmer. :]

    Oh wow, that was great. A person could put some get dialogue with that footage. I thought the turtle was hilarious like, "Hey man, get outta here. You're drawing attention to me.........hey, hey, hey, take it easy will ya! You nearly made me fall in then......stupid bird.....!
