Great Egret Eating a Vole

From the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service:

Yum! Great egret chows down on a vole at Ridgefield National #WildlifeRefuge(http://1.usa.gov/1W3SteY) in Washington. Great egrets feed primarily on fish, frogs and small mammals. They stalk and spear prey with their long, sharp bill before swallowing whole.
