We had a Egret out in the front yard ,they are so pretty. I started pecking
at the ground
then up came its head and a snake slinging in the air. The fight was on.
Its head was shaking the snake,
the snake wound itself around its beak all the way up. It took about 5 min
of this slinging and shaking and winding around its beak. finally the Egret
figured out if it could bite the head off the snake the rest would slither
down. And sure enough to our surprise the snake slithered down. Amazed and
grossed out all at the same time. Crazy birds.
