Sometimes Mother Nature isn't so pretty . . .

Jeff and I made a quick trip out to the lake yestrday evening.  I took my camera and hoped that I would see something interesting.  Jeff thinks the bird in these pictures is a kingfisher.  I had seen them before and thought they were very interesting.  This guy sat in the tree for about 20 minutes.  Close up he is not so pretty.  When I zoomed in on some of the pictures I had taken he has a green snake hanging out of his mouth.  He must have caught him on the edge of the lake and then flown up into the tree to eat him.  Gag.  Now I think they are vulgar. 

The last picture is in the water in the cove where Jeff likes to park the boat.  You can't get any sunshine there (not cool) and I am certain there are snakes in these weeds that are growing out of the water.
