Yes yes I know, I keep posting non boa pics here. But now I have a new slide scanner I can get some more of the (true) Leticia boas (just to clarify, just plain old Colombian / upper Amazonian B.c.c., nothing more!) up here. Anyway, in the meantime, how's this one? Clelia clelia eating a Bothrops atrox. It was a once in a lifetime thing, and I was lucky to capture it on film (got me a runner up in the animal behaviour section of the world's largest wildlfe photography competition - so I'm rather proud of it).

For anyone interested in the technical side of the shot:


Canon Eos 1, 15mm fish-eye, 1/8 second @ f8

OK, time to dig out some boa slides I guess!
