EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a 'snake-charming' party! Marabou Storks gatecrash the Mozambique Spitting Cobra's territory, turning it into an unexpected wildlife showdown. In this print by FLPA/David Hosking, we witness nature's version of a high-stakes game night in the heart of Africa. The scene unfolds in Botswana's Okavango Delta, where these magnificent creatures collide. The Marabou Storks, known for their gangly appearance and impressive wingspan, form a formidable circle around the venomous cobra. With their beady eyes fixed on their slithery adversary, they seem to be saying: 'We've got you surrounded!' But don't underestimate the cunning of this African spitter! The Mozambique Spitting Cobra stands tall and poised amidst its feathered foes. Known for its ability to accurately spit venom up to 8 feet away with deadly precision (thankfully not captured in this still image), it holds its ground confidently. This extraordinary snapshot perfectly captures the raw beauty and intense drama that unfolds within our natural world. It reminds us that even in seemingly ordinary moments like these encounters between species can create breathtaking spectacles. So hang this stunning FLPA Images print on your wall and let your imagination run wild as you ponder what happens next – will there be a truce or an epic battle? One thing is certain; nature never fails to surprise us!
