We have been watching the heron come into the yard on a daily basis and take one or two chipmunks and go sit on the pier and down them whole head first just as if it were a fish or frog. The big difference with our heron he stabs them just like a fish with his bill not with his talons. Chipmunk population has dropped considerably this year.
