“Are You Going To Eat That All By Yourself?”
This afternoon a great blue heron plucked a fish out of the marsh pond then paraded it around in front of a hungry looking egret. But…the blue heron was not in the mood to share, and the poor egret was left to go catch his own fish or stay hungry.

Showoff!!!
He sure was! Which was mean too because I never did see the egret catch anything.
The egret should have gave him a poke.
There were chasing each other around for a while, I don’t think either was very happy with the other.
No sharing here!!!!
Oh absolutely not! That egret would not be getting any of the heron’s fish.
Love the colours of the egret’s beak!
That bit of red on there makes me think he recently did catch and eat a fish of his own.
That sneaky egret!
He is a bit sneaky. 🙂
Ah the classic dirty look.
There were plenty of those out there and the egret was not in a good mood.
Ha ha ha!! Haven’t we all been guilty of that look of envy? Great shot, Phil!
I’m sure that egret could taste that fish but unfortunately the heron wasn’t sharing.
🙂 ! Adding insult to hunger ?
Nice shot , Phil .

That’s exactly right utham! Glad you liked the photo!
Aren’t I just the clever one!
Oh those blue herons always think they are soooo clever. 🙂
The egret has that envious look… 🙂
He sure does Amy. 🙂
How mean can one be? That Egret does look very envious. 🙂
I’ve been seeing what I believe is that same blue heron hanging around in that area for days but never catching anything. So I guess he finally gets a fish and wants the whole world to know about it.
Airone ingordo, povera garzetta !!!
Ciao, Pat
Lui è un airone goloso! Scarso Egret riceve nessun pesce. 😦
I think that’s akin to chest-beating! 😉
I think you are right about that. 🙂
