We had been viewing a few lions in the Masai Mara when I looked around and saw this Africa jacana catch a frog. With their long toes and claws, they can walk across floating vegetation to grab unsuspecting prey. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm lens, ISO 360, f/5.6 at 1/1250th of a second.

What a beautiful bird, in great surroundings , you can see the vibrant Colorado leaves, but the poor little frog, he is dinner
What timing, Sean – excellent, but I doubt the frog felt the same way!
