This is a leopard frog eating a hopper.     

This image was taken at Wilderness Park in Michigan.   Many tourists come to Michigan and this Mackinaw area to visit the Mackinaw Bridge.   If you like nature photography, this park is within miles of the bridge and has fantastic wildlife. 

F6.3 @ 1/400 @ 60mm

Thanks for looking!

Nice behavior shot, like the vivid green color. Sounds like a great area to visit.

Fine behavior capture - I've read that leopard frogs are becoming scarce.

Hi

A neat capture - I don't recall seeing a frog / prey image before

And a nice frame filling shot too - well done

All the best
Matthew

Like the neon like green coloration for the frog. Your reflection is perhaps seen in the eye of the frog. Nice !
