Deletewow too neat! you can just about touch her and the baby. Is that a frog in her mouth? nom nom lol
ReplyDeleteYes, frogs-legs were on the menu!
Deletewhat a cute chick. i have never seen one before. great shots.
ReplyDeleteIt was a new experience for me too.
DeleteWow, I've never seen a swamp hen. She's pretty amazing. The first photo is my favorite. She's quite a predator.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised at her rather large catch. I guess when you've got chicks to feed you want to make sure everyone gets a good meal.

ReplyDeleteGotta keep those chicks well fed I guess :o) Apparently the Romans used swamp hens as decorative birds like we do with peacocks, so you and aren't the only ones that think they're amazing ;)
DeleteHow cute and fuzzy is that baby! I love their huge feet.
ReplyDeleteBaby chicks are always fuzzy, but they get past that super fuzz ball stage too quickly!
DeleteI've not seen one of these birds before. These are great pictures and I love the huge beak. #AnimalTales

They really do have a big beak!
DeleteWow - great shots!
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard of a swamp hen. Looks like she's a very effective hunter!
Thanks for linking up at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2015/09/steam-powered-whatchamacallits.html
Even humans think frog legs are tasty. Those chicks are fed well!
DeleteReminds me a little of a black version of our Muscovy Ducks...what a good mum providing a meal for baby :)
ReplyDeleteShe was a great mum! She kept a real close eye on us while making sure her little one was well looked after.
DeleteI've seen herons grabbing frogs like that as well. You wouldn't think they were such vicious birds.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess they've got to eat. The bigger the catch the less hunting to be done.
Deletewhoa, these are fantastic close up shots!
ReplyDeletewhat was she eating in the first photo?
Frog. She took it back to her chicks for lunch.
Deletewhat a fantastic shot of the swamp hen with the frog/toad in her mouth
ReplyDeleteThanks :o)
DeleteNice shots! Really great close ups!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting bird! Love your first photo when it go a prey (not sure if he got a rat).
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I always cringe a little bit when I see nature "in action" but then I remind myself that it's supposed to work that way. You've done an excellent job of capturing her capturing & having lunch!
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining us for Photo Friday!
Now it is my turn to see your (to me) unusual wildlife on #AnimalTales! I had a google search and was right in thinking your swamphen is a rail and in the same family as moorhens and coots we see in the UK and France.
