Caught Coracias Garrulus Roller Snake
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Roller's Got Talent - The Snake Whisperer Edition!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness the incredible skills of a Roller bird as it proudly displays its latest conquest - a grass snake! With feathers shimmering in vibrant hues of blue and orange, our feathered friend seems to have unlocked a hidden talent for reptile wrangling. As the roller perches on a branch, its beady eyes gleam with triumph. It holds the snake delicately yet confidently in its beak, showcasing an unexpected harmony between predator and prey. Is this nature's version of "Got Talent" where even birds can surprise us with their unique abilities? The grass snake itself appears both startled and mesmerized by its captor. Its slender body twists and turns in an attempt to escape, but it is no match for the roller's firm grip. Perhaps there is some secret communication happening between these two creatures – after all, who knew that rollers could understand serpent language? This extraordinary photograph serves as a reminder that wildlife never ceases to amaze us with its diversity and ingenuity. So next time you're out exploring nature or watching your favorite talent show on TV, keep an eye out for those unexpected moments when animals showcase their own special talents – just like our talented Roller bird here!
