Woodpecker takes on 10ft snake in heroic struggle for nest
After a fight lasting about four minutes, the wounded bird left the area and is likely to have died of its injuries or been killed by a predator. Photo: BARCROFT

Assaf Admoni, 38, an engineer from Herzelia in Israel, took the pictures while holidaying on the Yarapa River in Peru in June. Photo: BARCROFT
The crimson crested woodpecker made repeated attempts to drive the snake out of the tree and was bitten by the snake five times.
On each occasion the snake, thought to be an olive whipsnake, held the much smaller bird in its mouth and then let it fall to the ground below.
After this video
After this video was taken, the female woodpecker was hurt (hard to see in the video), later the male woodpecker tried as well, but we had to leave.
Our guides said that the female woodpecker is doomed since it was bleeding and the predators in the jungle will smell it ..
So, I would say the snake won, video was taken on Yarapa River in Peru in June.
