Posted on behalf of a friend. The bird is clearly a Great Blue Heron., but we would be interested in thoughts as to what the prey is that it is devouring.

Found this lil one which I have never seen a color morph like this for a Mud snake. I determined it to be one based off the visual/physical features such as the “tail spine”, pattern, head/eye shape, as well as a divided anal plate.
