The snake and the heron
-
We’ve featured a number of amazing nature scenes that play out on our website, but this might be the most dramatic yet.
Photographer Marcos Rodriguez witnessed and photographed a wild, 20-minute battle between a large heron and the snake that was going to be its meal.
In the dramatic images, we see the way the snake wrapped itself around its attacker. Captured in the Orlando Wetlands, this blue heron takes on a very defensive banded water snake, which refuses to give up easily.
