Frog for lunch! (ardea herodias)

This GBH struggled with this huge Bullfrog , spearing it and dropping it several times before swallowing it. This removed a nasty invasive predator from the pond, one who would eat native frogs, fish and any unlucky baby waterfowl it could find. This is for Mark's wife who is very fond of frogs and will surely be cheering for the frog. I say GO HERONS!!

Great catch for you and the heron. That is one large looking frog but one whose time has come.
