I didn’t see the catch. I don’t know how long the Egret was walking around with him. I was on a dike and walked over to see what he was doing.

Well, he was trying to figure out his next step.

You could see the bird was keeping this trophy. Egrets can eat some big fish so I thought sooner or later he would work it out. I wanted the shot when he did.

He just about had it too. But he was not happy.

In the ‘you can’t make this stuff up’ category he knew a Great Blue was about to mug him.

I did catch the Heron flying in, but I missed the Egret run away.

Off they went down the marsh and I have no ending to this story. The Heron could steal the fish, the Egret could swallow him while flying off, maybe he dropped it and there was no winner at all.

I did get a lot of shots with an Egret and his fish though.
