Weasel On Woodpecker: ‘How I Snapped The Photo’ BBC News
” The amateur photographer who took a picture of a weasel on the back of a woodpecker mid-flight says it is “almost a dream”.
Martin Le-May took it while walking with his wife in Hornchurch Country Park in east London. He said “It’s almost a dream that you take a photograph that lots and lots of people not only look at but like”. “
Watching the video and hearing Mr Le-May explain the circumstances of the tiny weasel attempting to take down prey nearly twice it’s size immediately brought to mind this old Merry Melodies cartoon :
Like the weasel , this tiny chickenhawk had the “cojones” to tackle prey many times his size , namely Foghorn Leghorn … LOL
