Just so I'm not out done by my student, here is a photo I grabbed out of the window of our car as we drove down a back country road. I stopped the car just long enough to take the shot.

Gorgeous! I've never seen a heron eating anything but fish.

Thank you. We see Herons all the time catching fish and frogs. We see them out in the marshy fields all the time, so I figured they have been eating small rodents. This series of photos definitely prove it.

Grampa, Ellen looks awfully cold in that pic !! Hope you had the car heater on for her when she got the shot done
