      The fact that someone witnessed that and managed to capture it that well is amazing.

      A weasel and a woodpecker meet on the branch of a tree and the weasel asks the woodpecker to carry him to another tree on its back. The woodpecker asks, “How do I know you won’t sting me?” The weasel says, “I am a weasel, I have no stinger.”

      The woodpecker is satisfied, and they set out, but midflight, the weasel stings the woodpecker. The woodpecker feels the onset of paralysis and starts to plummet, knowing they both will crash, but has just enough time to gasp “How?”

      Replies the weasel: "Suck it!!!”🖕🖕

      I’m literally ashamed at my own naivete. I wasn’t thinking. But I just thought it was a fun fluke photo. :(

      “I think we may have distracted the weasel as when the woodpecker landed it managed to escape and the weasel ran into the grass.”

      From the BBC article in the other comment

    I appreciate the following quote and I’m hoping this image doesn’t show an exception to the rule.

    Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines.
