 Lost Pond Trail - Great Blue Heron with Food

 

A Great Blue Heron swims toward shore with a fish or frog in its mouth.

Moments after catching a fish or frog, the heron swims toward the shore, its prey still struggling against finality. The heron has a bit of an effort to orient the prey so that it can be swallowed, but manages the task without dropping it. The prey is swallowed whole and the heron washes it down with a drink of water.
