Thanks!
The gulp is small compared to what Pythons can pull off!

Well done! Well exposed, sharp photos in a sequence that tells a complete story including the "turn" to get lunch pointed in the right direction. They are beautiful, patient and deadly at work.

There are a lot of GBH's around my corner of PA and I've seen them eat some really big fish, but you are right, I've seen pythons on TV swallow things it's hard to believe could fit in their mouth.

I'm thinking that would be a bird with really bad breath? Great sequence!

Thank you, rockdog, for your feedback. Indeed, GBH's are patient - they almost look "lazy" - as they sit by the side of a body of water, either digesting their previous meal, or surveying the water for their next one. Then, they pounce. Their style of fishing isn't as exciting as that of an eagle or an osprey's. However, neither can swallow a fish whole like a GBH can.

I read about Python's swallowing humans in remote villages. I wonder about the truthfulness of those incidents.
