White Ibis chowing down on crayfish

written by Andy McGann

Andy got some great footage of the Berks County White Ibis breaking down and eating a crayfish. He shot the footage at high speed and slowed it down so you can see the process in great detail.

    Great video! That poor crayfish!  I have some pics of a White Ibis eating a toad in Florida, and he did a pretty similar thing to try to get it down. Meanwhile, the toad just puffed out more and more!

    Great video!  I saw a White Ibis in Florida eat a toad in a very similar way, but it was a little harder because the toad puffed up!
