The GBH and the Green Heron did well. Lots of debris and early morning shadows. Most of the time they had their backs to me and it took over two hours before getting any opportunities.

nice shots, the first one reminds me of a cartoon I've seen, "the last defiant act" of a mouse flipping off the eagle closing in for the kill..........can't see the frogs other "hand" so.............

He very may have! This went on for about ten minutes. The heron dunked him several times and then shook and squeezed each time. I shall omit further observations.

My wife keeps suggesting a trip, but we're doing the harder trips first while we still have a little bounce in our step!Jul 25, 2018 14:19:34 #

Well, you done good. I look at #1 and keep thinking to myself, "he's going to swallow that thing hole without cooking." Yuk

I often see them fly back to the nest and regurgitate their catches for the young. The frog legs might be okay.
