Cracked Crab For Dinner!
Earlier we were watching a pair of juvenile yellow-crowned night herons patroling the evening salt marsh at low tide in search of a meal.
One of the juvies eventually headed off on it’s own and was successful in catching it’s favorite treat, a nice tasty blue crab.
A few crunches…a quick gulp…and the crab was part of this youngster’s dinner!
