Yes, this cattle egret ate the frog. Down in one gulp!
Osprey flying over me.
The osprey finally got a fish. I tried to get him hitting the lake to catch it but it was directly in the sun and did not come out well. As he flew past me I was able to get the above.
Turkey vulture peeking out behind the tree.
Green heron in the lake.
More birds from my pre-Christmas trip to Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland. The place is finally hopping with variety. Lots more from my post-Christmas trip later.
Fantastic photos! When I stopped home on my lunch break one day there were a group of ibis in our yard and street, when I pulled out to go back to work there was one left that would move out of the way...he had a huge frog in his beak! I went the other way so not to disturb his lunch! No camera as I drive :(
ReplyDeleteI love the osprey pics...we've seen so many this year. I love to watch them.
You got some very nice shots of these birds.
ReplyDeleteI love turkey vultures...they're so ugly they're cute!
ReplyDeleteTurkey Vultures look just like their cartoon depictions, unlike pelicans.
ReplyDeleteI guess those cow birds aren't picky eaters:)
ReplyDeleteVery nice shots -- I really like the egret with the frog!
