You wanted food shots????

You know the old saying, "Bite off more than you can chew ....... then chew like crazy"?

Well this old boy has turned this idea into an high level art-form...

This shot was taken at the Pilbara iron ore mine site in Western Australia and the little snack took the snake five hours to finish....http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff179/Johnquincy/n572777816_1831657_1542757.jpg

The mine workers erected a barrier to allow the serpent to finish his meal in peace....

Our local Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes can (when they must!) go for more than 2 years between meals.
Your old boy there must be good for 5 years at least!
Know what kind of snake it is?
Snakes are fascinating critters...we used to have a pet 6-foot Boa Constrictor named Gus. He married Thelma at Texas Tech University and last I heard was busy producing little squeezers!

Good one Dave.
That particular snake is called, wait for it, a black headed python.

Where did they get that name from I wonder....:linzi:

Boxer Boy, I've seen that pic before.... My old Navy mate, JC Fullard sent it to me. He called it "Northern Territory Fishing".

I thought I was pretty good in the eating game but my black headed mate puts me to shame for sure....

Nice! A meal that comes with it's own toothpick!
