Snack Time

I spent a bit of time at the salt marsh this afternoon watching an active tricolored heron with a voracious appetite.

He was snatching up tiny fish and glass shrimp faster than you could count.

You know how it goes with snacking, you start off with the intention of having ‘just a few’ and the next thing you know you’ve eaten a whole marsh full. 🙂
