Just going to leave this here for #TeamBird to check out 😎
#BirdsVsFish
Page from a children’s animal encyclopedia book, featuring a heron eating a gar (fish).
My 1st grader put a bookmark in this page so she could make sure to show me, and I think I’m losing #BirdsVsFish on the home front 😅
Note: there was another page with a pic of a gar swimming freely, but she only bookmarked THIS one 👇🙃
#TeamFish for the win! #BirdsVsFish 🐟🐠
A bird scientist and a fish scientist put aside their differences and take a fun photo with an Alligator Gar (fish) head. They’ve known each other for over 10 years online, but this was their first meeting in person!
#BirdsVsFish crossover at the @nationalwildlife.bsky.social meeting! FINtastic to finally meet @corinanewsome.bsky.social in person!
The "twitter barfight" meme in the version i originally saw it: biker guy is Fish Twitter, nerdy challenger guy is Bird Twitter, and onlookers are Squid Twitter, Nudibranch Twitter, Insect Twitter & Snake twitter
of course, the greatest of all online Critter Beefs is still
#FishvsBirds (or #BirdsVsFish if u prefer)
Wingspan vs Finspan.

THIS. #BirdsvsFish
I mean, it would be nice to have a freshwater version, or include freshwater fishes too, but will take what we can get in the #BirdsVsFish battle!
After all, fish are friends, birds are food! #fishpuke #TeamFish #BirdsvsFish 🐟🐠🌎🧪
Ich habe gerade eine halkbe Stunde lang versucht ein Video von einem Kabeljau zu finden, der einen Seevogel verschlingt #BirdsvsFish
Ich finde ja H5N1 sollte die langjährige #birdsvsfish Debatte zugunsten der Seite der Fische beenden.
I actually had one as a pet back in the day (African Tigerfish, Hydrocynus vittatus)
Never considered training it to eat birds though 🤔🤔🤔 #BirdsVsFish
EPIC #BirdsVsFish clip:
African Tigerfish takes a swallow right out of the air!
Welp, there goes the neighborhood…

THANK YOU for humoring my GARish request! 😂😂😍👍

Looks like #TeamBird is sending their Bird of Prey class enforcers to keep an eye on us until we move out! #BirdsVsFish
Fish EATS Bird!!!
A #BirdsVsFish WIN for #TeamFish as this South American Wolf Fish nabs a bird from the shoreline! 🐦🍽️🐟

OF COURSE I had the bird-eating species of African Tigerfish in grad school 🐦🍽️🐅🐟 #BirdsVsFish
Mainly fed it fish and shrimp. No birds, but occasional Peeps to keep its tigerfish instincts sharp…

Here’s a link to the paper by O’Brien et al 2014 https://bit.ly/3KmNnwv #BirdsVsFish
First observation of African tigerfish Hydrocynus vittatus predating on barn swallows Hirundo rustica in flight
BIRD-EATER!!!
Meet Hydrocynus vittatus, a species of African Tigerfish that can leap from the water and pull birds right out of the air!
The species was one of the first observations of mid-flight avivory (bird-eating) by a freshwater fish!🐦🍽️🐟

The ultimate bothsidesism in #BirdsVsFish😂
But seriously, it was an educational experience and fun to learn more about local biodiversity! Thanks @SallmannC @BadgerlandBirds!
BIRDING. Yes I did it.
But we managed to combine it with some herping and fish-watching too! https://t.co/W3W32gvkaa
Full Episode is up @BadgerlandBirds

Thanks @SallmannC & Ryan for this wrong-side-of #BirdsVsFish experience👍
YES I WENT “BIRDING” AND @SallmannC @BadgerlandBirds RECORDED IT AND HERE’S A PREVIEW OF THE NONSENSE https://t.co/bJAk1P5cA7

“Velociraptors vs Gar” by Ray Troll👍
Could it have happened? Gars and raptors did overlap in time (Late Cretaceous), but range overlap & habitat proximity unlikely.
Regardless, only one of these two lineages truly persists to this day 😎 #BirdsVsFish #GARtwork
TFW #TeamBird outnumbers you at your field site.

Amusing shot by @sputterfuss6! Not sure what’s going on between this heron and gar, but it’s definitely #BirdsVsFish material!
