I wondered if the egret was going to win this battle with this banded water snake. D850/Tammy 600 G2

Great action shot ... am I correct in thinking you stayed to see how that contest finished up & that the Egret did make a meal of the snake? Thanks for sharing.

I've watched a lot of egrets and herons with snakes. The snake doesn't stand a chance.

Me too John but I thought this snake was gonna get away. Never saw a bird eat one that big!

5The big birds, Egrets, Herons and others, are very skilled predators. Anything they catch is likely doomed. Very nice shot!
