Regarding Great Blue Heron predation on Pied-billed Grebe.
I saw a great blue heron pierce and swallow a turtle that was at least
4"-5" across. You could see the turtle going down the herons neck and
then the heron let out a groan like I have never heard. I bet it was
wishing that it didn't swallow that turtle.
