I got my camera very close because he was occupied and his mouth was full. When he noticed he vibrated his tail. Never kill a king snake. This could have been a copperhead that he was eating.click to enlarge

Amazing that it can swallow something almost as big as itself. It won't need to eat again for at least a week or two. Great photos!
