Absolutely amazing capture! I never have seen a bird eat a fish, let along a large lizard! Aren't iguanas pretty formidable prey, I'd imagine its not too happy to be staring down it's captors throat here! So does the Heron really manage to win the battle and gulp that whole thing okay? Does the desperate lizard put up a good fight, if eaten does the unlucky prey get swallowed thrashing all the way down as well?!
