Yeah, he didn't even mention nestling birds, bird eggs and carrion, which is probably their main foods.

I agree, it looks much more like a small-eyed snake, but it's hard to be sure due to the dodgy camera work and poor image quality.

I think there's a sad trend currently with the way natural history documentaries are made with the host as the star, rather than the animals as the stars. This was epitomised (but not started) by Steve Irwin. It also results in copy-cat performances such as the one in this YouTube vid. I think we can be brutally honest and say that no one's going to learn anything from this vid, and yet a wild animal was harassed for it.

I'm glad that David Attenborough's Life in Cold Blood received attention on this site.
