An Unlucky Frog!

Today was a busy day at Delta Ponds, at least this morning was! I saw a Great Blue Heron, Great White Egret, Green Heron and turtle all in the same pond. The Green Heron was especially busy. I watched as it caught, first a snake and then a big frog. It was great to get pictures of both! The frog looked pretty big to me, but the heron managed to get it down. I felt sorry for the frog!
