This fella was on the ground when I approached and had jumped up to the branch. It took me by surprise when I saw what it had at its claws, and the snake was still struggling too!
A victorious mean look!
As if it was flexing its muscles before it started on its feast.
The snake clearly seen struggling.
Looked like it sensed my presence momentarily.
Then it was a tug and a couple of swallows before the victim disappeared totally.
Did it look satisfied?
Yes, it did.
As it started to drizzle again, it flew right across to the other side of the stream where it started to preen, under the shelter of denser leaves.
Then the sun came out and this fella too came out into the open and the bright light gave it a different but nevertheless imposing stature!
Looking fabulous even through a window of leaves!
