But when you leave the nest,your eggs can be devoured.A snake is just a legless lizard.
Republican nest eggs are tastiest.And of course sometimes it does not work out and mom and pop show up early and then the snake becomes dinner.But that looks like a chicken egg to me.
I'm nitpicking here but snakes are not legless lizards. That space is reserved for actual legless lizards
These lizards are often distinguishable from snakes on the basis of one or more of the following characteristics: possessing eyelids, possessing external ear openings, lack of broad belly scales, and/or a very long tail (while snakes have a long body and short tail).

^^^^Bald Eagles eat carrion and steal from other birds.
And trollcatman,I believe that snakes evolved from lizards,the monitor family.
But Raptor may believe in creationism.
And King snakes do eat copperheads,seen it.And Cobras eat other snakes.
Cobras are not by any means stupid.Scientists are now doing studies on reptile intelligence,many are proving to be smarter than some mammals,but you don't really want to get into my special interest here,or I'll drag out some IRCF journals with all sorts of cool stuff about reptiles by leading Herpetologists.

If I could do my life over,that would be the field I would choose.My dream vacation is to go to the Caymans,not for the beaches but to volunteer at the Blue iguana recovery program.They were saved from extinction,a triumph.Sadly a few years back a lowlife broke into the breeding facility and beat seven of the rarest reptiles on the planet to death.They know who did it,but don't have enough evidence to prove it.
Here is a painting of them.

Too bad for the other birds.
Especially when it pisses off the evolutionists and other heathens.

Good luck pissing me off,I'm cold blooded and as heathen as they come,a Buddhist/pagan/Rainbow girl.
So you really think the world was created in seven days?
And you say snakes are dumb. 
I'll say a few mantras for you. 
And even burn some incense for ya'.

I'm so proud that this thread has continued on as an intelligent debate.

Thanks very much for getting us started!

Yes they do but it's still not a bird of prey. Neither is the one the gator is eating. I'm not seeing beaks intended for ripping flesh or talons suitable for scratching the eyes out of trolls.
