Heron

On Wednesday at 9.05 am we saw a heron standing by the pond looking at frogs. It was standing still looking at the water for about 20 minutes.
Eventually, as fast as lightening its neck bent down and it caught a frog in its beak. He held it in his mouth for a while, dipped it in the water two times and ate it.
It dropped it on the floor a few times because it couldn't get a good grip. Jack said it made him feel ill seeing the frog half dead and being eaten.
Annabelle thought it was really exciting, they have to eat frogs otherwise they will die and it was a pretty bird as well.
