Here is a video of a captive killer whale also known as an “Orca” at feeding time in a pool at an sea aquarium somewhere in North America. A number of scavenger birds are lurking looking to grab one of the baited fish during the large sea mammal’s feeding session. What happens next is a shocking and unexpected event which is quite stunning to see!

Do whales like eating birds more than fish?
