Finally some success or at least I got something much better than my first effort anyway. I have to admit, this was a massive fluke and unfortunately I missed what could have been the best shot while dragging my camera out of my bag and turning it on. But never mind, I managed to snap this pretty cool shot of a Grass Snake apparently trying to make off with a duckling*. For those of you with a nervous disposition, don't worry Mummy Duck was equal to the challenge of chasing the marauding snake away. Click the picture for a better view...
* I have no idea if the snake was really after a duckling, it did seem to be chasing them though - swimming directly at the family of ducks several times before mummy finally saw it off.

Excellent!
ReplyDeleteCheers Ned. It was basically complete luck, but I was still quite excited to get the shots.
