This redtailed hawk grabbed a large snake, wrestled with it for about ten minutes and finally had it for lunch, but not without a fight!

Amazing capture! I have never seen any raptor situation like that.
Think about submitting to Nature magazine, or similar.

Neat-o; you posted them! You've set the bar pretty high for yourself for future topics, Susan :) Jaw-dropping images.

Coachwhip? I can not identify the snake, but from the build and length, and general cranky nature, I would tend to think so.
Nice work, stunning actually.
I would submit to magazines, very likely to be published, once I n a lifetime opportunity and you nailed it.
