  • Snake vs. Mouse (warning: mouse loses)

    ...or the alternative title "going, going, gone".

    During a recent trip to Crealy with the kids we arrived in the reptile house during feeding time... it took several minutes but eventually this guy finished his dinner.

    EP3+20 1.7:









    GX7, EP3, 9-18, 14-45, 45-150, 20 1.7, 25 1.4, 45 1.8, FL36 & various OM glass. flickr

      And I thought I was greedy! How did it fit it all in? That snake must be all stomach - and an elasticated one at that!

        Snakebite... haven't drunk one of those in years, but perhaps they are best left for the young!

        Indeed, it is the equivalent of eating an entire roast chicken in one go ... and yet strangely hypnotic at the same time!

              To be honest, I'm not sure... but when you have a meal that big that's half-way down your throat I can't imagine he'd spend any energy chasing it!
