Hanno a 43 years old tourist was enjoying his safari in Kruger National Park sighting lions and tigers and suddenly his attention was caught by an incident happening far from him.
He spotted a blue bird with a worm in its beak. When he zoomed his binoculars, he was surprised that the worm in beak of bird was a tiny snake.

They are found in different colors but mostly blue and black. Generally, they are found in large groups and are very social.
Coming back to the story the snake was caught by the bird and was trying all in its strength to set itself free. Hanno took out its camera and focused on the scene and started clicking. Video footage was not possible as the bird was very far and the camera was unable to zoom that far for video recording.
