I'd have thought so too, as it sure does look like a black tongue.

How you capture these moments is quite commendable.

Timing is everything here and you have it.

I like the darkness that ushers in the light on the left. That's cool on owing you didn't edit the photograph.

Well done and keep it coming.

A nice perspective and a very fine exposure. It looks like he might have caught another catfish. Any way he is certainly busy trying to swallow it. Nice colors and great colors.

What a great and no doubt I'm sure, not an easy moment to capture! A lovely crisp shot of the heron and his unfortunate prey! Very nicely done!

What a tremendous shot! I like the way the sun highlights its head so that we see the fish tail hanging from it's bill. You had great patience to wait for this shot.

Clever image Fred and with your fun title it makes you look twicw at the heron just to make sure that it is not a tongue, caught at the perfect moment for you to take this, great light use and of course the detail is pin sharp!

What a timing! You must be having tremendous energy and patience to keep watching for such things to happen. Great looking shot.The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Comment from Charlie Newman


Excellent scene of nature at work. The focus, details and clarity of the heron are well done. I almost missed the fish. Maybe a tweak of the shadows and contrast would have made it stand out more. Just a thought.
