Saw this heron with its latest catch today. So I took a before and after picture. Heron with fish. ( photo / image / picture from Kildale's Garden ) There it was, gone. ( photo / image / picture from Kildale's Garden )
It looked as though that meal went down smoothly. I've seen herons eating frogs, fish and small mammals but never managed to get before and after shots.
That was a catfish!! Must have been delicious. I see them along the river all the time. I have never seen them doing that before. So cool how they get things down.
Thank you for the messages. I go down to the sea 3 or 4 times a week. Its not far, I have walked down. Many years ago they put a road across a bay with a bridge at one end. That end is open to the sea and where the tides come in, that is what we call the lagoon. Great for birds,especially in the winter.
