Heron trying to eat a snake..3rd time lucky!

This black-headed heron thought it had an easy meal when it caught a snake in the Masai Mara in Kenya. The snake had other ideas however and kept slithering back out of its throat...

Wow fascinating capture! Wouldn’t it be great to grab the bird’s neck at 1:08 and save that big (Do you know the type?) snake from sliding all the way down?? Does the unlucky reptile stand any chance itself to turn around and escape (or even damage? Hopefully no harm to the bird.) the heron’s elastic throat/stomach if eaten in that condition as well!?
