Thankyou Alex D. good to hear from you as always. That's a good expression too, about nature pulling no punches.

Hi Golda, I didn't hear that, but last evening while near the heron nesting bluff area, on a post overlooking the beach area, I noticed what looked like a baby heron skull and the long neckbones ontop of the post. Thought it was a dried plant stem and flowerhead initially, then looked closer. So some predator had caught that baby heron. Nature can be very cruel.
