On the road through the Darling Wildlife Refuge.....
...we stopped to watch this Great Egret.
He was fishing...
...and was successful!
He then flew closer to the road. I wasn't sure why but was glad so I could get a better picture.
The fish was alive and he was squeezing and banging the fish against the ground....
...again and again, he squeezed the fish.
until it was dead and then he swallowed it whole.
Ah, now he's satisfied and doesn't mind posing for me.
Right after this, we saw an alligator with some kind of prey but I couldn't get a picture of him in the murky waters...
