Snake × 1 9 July
Photo

Description
Eating a Rufous Owl Ninox rufa. While the quality of the photo isn't great, I clearly observed (with binoculars) the shape of the python's head, its slender body, and its colour (pale grey with darker, sparse, markings) which all suggested the ID of Oenpelli python. Observed in a patch of monsoon forest beside a sandstone scarp.
