Thanks, and yes, I was surprised the Heron managed to swallow that huge frog!

Excellent. They are brutal and greedy birds, but I love them.

Great shots! I've never been so keen on frogs myself but this guy certainly doesn't mind them!

Thanks. And yes, I’ve never considered frog legs appetising and after watching this guy, even less so, quite a messy eater
