There is a small pond in some woods beyond the Heron rookery that I check on once in awhile.

The vegetation has been too high around it to see much lately, but a few days ago I strolled over to discover that the edges have been cleared, giving a nice view into the water.

This Little Blue Heron was the only bird I saw, and he was cleaning up on little salamanders or something similar.

Down in one gulp, and then inching ahead he seemed quite content.
