Great idea for the #SMAP contest this week in the Feathered Friends community.
My entry is not a Headless Chicken, but a Headless Heron. Enjoy this tail shot of a beautiful Blue Heron with head buried in the water chasing a tasty meal. I just missed catching it as it hit the water.
Here it was just before the plunge.
These birds are fairly large, getting up to 55 inches tall. They've been captured on pics even eating snakes and baby alligators!
These long necks give it a tremendous reach below the water!
Have a great week!
