You might want to make the picture just a teeny bit larger than a postage stamp.

That's what I was thinking. Eating a copperhead I believe.

This is a great example of why you should not kill a king snake.
Good stuff.

Spent about 4 hours three years ago or so watching and photographing that very thing. Think I posted the pictures way back then. Pretty neat to watch. Both were really large snakes then, too. The speckled king snake was around 5' and the copper head was just slightly smaller. When he was done the king snake was as big around as my arm. He looked like he wouldn't be able to move and I really expected him to just lay there for hours, but about 10 minutes later he was long gone.

That King Snake is one bad dude. You couldn't pay me to get within 10 ft of a Copperhead, let alone try to eat him up.
