The herons were on gopher patrol again this morning. Two herons both caught one each. They hunt and swallow the gopher whole, just like they do fish. They have to be a little harder to go down than fish. In the picture above you can see the lump in the heron’s throat after swollowing the gopher.

Here is a short clip of the turkey-ducks muscovy ducks coming to the door seeking food.
