Ed,

Boy, do they ever eat Bullfrogs. I have a picture of one from New Mexico
this past January that had swallowed the largest bullfrog I have ever seen in
my life. The GBH looked like it was choking. We were so amazed at what we
had seen before with the frog hanging limp (it looked like a foot long), while
the heron was trying to decide if it was dead or not, we forgot to get the
camera out to get a picture of that action. The picture only shows the large
lump in the heron's thoat.
