Bay Area, CA - United States

Wow, what a capture! I've never seen anything like it! fv

Tavares, FL - United States

It was a a fairly long battle. To keep from getting eaten, the snake tried to keep himself wrapped around the egret's beak. The egret made all sorts of maneuvers to free his beak - but the snake would wrap back up as tight as it could. Finally the bird gulped him down. Yep, it was amazing to watch. Thank you so much for taking a look, Geraldine, and thanks for your interest and nice comment!

Cape Coral, FL - United States

What an amazing photo Christy. It tells such a great nature story. The wriggling snake, the intense look in the eye of the bird and it leaves one wondering how it ended. How did it end by the way?
