Just one of the reasons why I love living near water. You get to see great wildlife. This guy was in my yard and I took the photo from a distance, hiding behind a bush. Not into fishing yesterday, he was looking for a different menu.
Great Egrets will eat anything they can catch including toads, fish, mice, and other small rodents. I have seen them eat those small garden lizards. A mature full sized bird can eat a 2-3 pound fish that's 15" long! They will take it down whole!
