Looks like the mongoose is quite pleased with himself. Im amazed at how fast they can move to dodge the strikes of the cobra's. One mean looking cobra too. Well captured Ken.

The cobra is already dead i assume? Then, nice behaviour shot.

Who is in charge here???? Very obvious!

Priceless documentary of the natural world.

Excellent image of a very proud mongoose. On my monitor the image is a bit bright and could use a tad more saturation. Perhaps a curves adjustment could accomplish both at the same time?

Ken,
Rare capture. The shadows create a sense of depth in the image. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
