A photographer named Martin Le-May from
Essex got a picture of something that is driving the internet crazy.
There are certain things that cause this to happen. A cat that looks
upset, kids high after going to the dentist, a goddamn dress, and now
this image of a weasel riding a woodpecker. How come this happened?
Le-May had this to say about his photo. “I heard a distressed
squawking noise and feared the worst. I soon realized it was a
woodpecker with some kind of small mammal on its back. I think we may
have distracted the weasel as when the woodpecker landed it managed
to escape and the weasel ran into the grass.” That sucks. Who knows
how long that weasel spent trying to catch that bird? If you told me
to catch anything in the hopes of riding it that didn't start with
“ho” and end in “bo” I wouldn't be able to. And this thing
caught a flying creature! Incredible. But it worries me. Why? Because
I'm Black and animals make me nervous. If I can't eat or pet it I
don't want nothing to do with it. Same rule applies to women. Next
thing you know other animals are gonna start teaming up.
