I happened upon a Green Heron perched over a small pond.
Turns out he was looking for dinner and went beak first into the water.
Got it and sprung right out!
Pretty sure “it” is a frog.
And in a matter of seconds the heron swallowed it.

Excellent shots, Ellen. Amazing how the sun lights the heron in the 2 last pictures.

Thank you, Greta. It was late afternoon with the sun angling into the pond between a gap in some trees—he landed on a good spot!

Great action series, love it! How is it they can get in all that algae/duckweed and come out with not one spec on them? If I went in and out, it’d stick all over me. 😉

Thanks, Donna, the Herons sure are fun to watch. That duck weed seems to roll right off them most of the time. Ick, another reason not to fall in!
