📷 Bird Feeding on Cat Carcass - #AnimalPhotography

in photography •  7 years ago 

WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGE AHEAD!

I was waiting by the train tracks in Shifen to photograph the incoming train when I spotted a few Taiwanese Blue Magpies fly into the area making loud noises. With nothing better to do I turned my attention to one of the birds and followed it with my lens down to the tracks, and that's where I saw it: a cat's dead body, severed in half with one half on each side of the rail. The bird started to feed on the dead cat, and I was able to capture a few shots before it flew away, poor kitty :(

drama of life...

Poor cat... must've been sleeping..

Damn, that sad. I supposed it got hit by the train.

Yeah, really sad to witness :(

It is a sorrowful picture... But the bird has really interesting red beak... I like the what the picture wants to tell... Life is cruel but at the same time it is a begining..

Have a nice day...

Thank you friend!
