   Love those furry-looking (feathery) legs. Look how long they are! It looks like he’s wearing pantaloons.

   Do you have a shot of the expression on the snake’s face as the hawk pulls its head off?

   Vox: heh…. Are you still bumming about your peeps? Those snakes are so darn stoic, silent and expressionless… The photo just wouldn’t be the same.

   tifotter: I had the same reaction. I would not have guessed that the outstretched legs are a full body length!

   thanks y’all. After seeing a couple magical animals, I have been paying closer attention, and finding beauty in the more common grasshopper and squirrel.

   Beautiful and slightly frightening, at least for me.
