Great Egret (Ardea alba) Grabs a Western Fence Lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis)

The lizard is also known as the blue-belly lizard. THANKS, Philippe Cohen, Brooke Fabricant, and iNaturalist contributors for the ID! Philippe and Brooke caught a flash of blue to confirm the ID. Sorry, newts were on my brain, I had recently seen some. In the grasslands near the Sun Research Center. 12:42:08 pm.
