Great Blue Heron about to steal a Snowy Egret's lunch

            This was so cool to watch. A Snowy Egret did all the work dancing around in the water stirring up the fish and then it attacked and got its reward. Little did it know that a Great Blue Heron snuck up behind it and was planning to steal its lunch. It was unsuccessful but a cool shot.
