Though a word of caution, after arriving I was informed by Kurogane that for today’s Chihara Minori concert, I was not allowed to take any photos. Even this rule was enforced for Media representative as well, only Official media were allowed to photograph the performance.

Snake Attack at KL bird park
I was wondering the bird park and was beginning to think it was time to head home when I was at the duck pond enclosure. I’ll be honest,it was pretty boring there, the ducks looked so plain and the waters were murky and dirty. I had hoped it was clear so I could play with reflection, the pond was separated into 2 halves. One half housed the flamingos while one half housed the ducks.
Each half was separated by a huge net, everyone else was at the far end of the flamingo side. I was on the duck pond side. There was a tourist couple there as well. It was still cloudy so everything appeared greyed out.
I had trained my lens on one of the ducks in the pond thinking I would take one more shot before going home when all of a sudden the duck tried to fly off but couldn’t and then the duck cried out in fright when out from the water a brownish coil appeared to wrap around it rendering it immobile. It had been caught by a snake!
