Frog legs were on the menu at one West Roxbury spot today

Heron eating a frog at Millennium Park

People weren't the only ones taking advantage of today's nice weather. Mary Ellen watched a great blue heron gulp down some frog legs - and the rest of the frog - at Millennium Park in West Roxbury.

Bottom's up:

Frog almost all the way down the heron's hatch

She is quite amazing at finding and lining up these wild life shots. It takes a special ability to be able to get shots like this without distracting or scaring the subjects.

'Twas a joke.

But I thought the frog always grabs the neck of the heron to try to strangle it or at least prevent swallowing. No?
