SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR: UNLUCKY LANDING FOR EGRET
This unlucky egret thought he had found a perfect spot to go fishing - but he ended up being the prey when an alligator launched a furious attack.
The bird had even chased off another egret from the spot before the 10ft-long reptile emerged from beneath the water.
It grabbed hold of the snowy egret's foot before devouring it in a matter of minutes.
The remarkable ambush was caught on camera by amateur photographer Michael Rosenbaum.
The 61-year-old library worker had popped out to take some snaps in the Green Cay wetlands, in Boynton Beach, Florida, before heading into work.
He said: "The wetlands are home to lots of wading or marsh birds, as well as numerous alligators.
"Usually the alligators catch turtles or fish rather than birds.
"Like people, birds sometimes bully other birds but this is a case of 'be careful what you wish for' or bullying gone wrong.
"The snowy egret had chased off another snowy egret from this location about 15 seconds before the attack.
"The alligator had been lurking beneath the duckweed and while the snowy egret was still enjoying his newly won fishing location, it reared up.
"Before the snowy could escape, the alligator got hold of its foot in its mouth.
"It was less than three minutes from catching the bird's foot to the alligator swallowing the bird."
