What is this Bird?

I wish I had a better picture but this bird showed up yesterday in our backyard. We have a marshy pond in back and it was swooping down and eating the large frogs around the pond. This was in Northern Iowa. Large bird. Any help would be great! I cannot find this bird in any of our bird books.
