Death of a Heron

Mimico Creek

A Mink caught this young Heron by the neck and drowned him. Mercifully it didn't take long. There was nothing I could do but watch in horror. Nature is harsh, and sometimes the predator becomes the prey. but Minks have to eat too.

Great shot Stan. I've witnessed this scenario myself. Mike.
