Orkid and Ikaika Successful Bird Hunt - SeaWorld San Diego - December 20, 2012

The first half of the video consists of Orkid patiently baiting the birds with fish and finally a bird was caught at 4:55. Ikaika starts showing some interest once Orkid has the bird in her clutches and the two eventually tore it apart sometime after this video. Interestingly, they did not eat the bird and it was more of a toy than a prey item. Overall this was a fascinating moment and I'm grateful I was at the right place at the right time!
