The bird had pretty much killed the snake prior to ingesting it.

To dear snake,
Bad news, you will be swallowed.
Good news, you will not be swallowed alive.

But what happens if the snake is longer than the bird's digestive tract?

Arch, I have no clue.

Very nice shot, Peter! Did you use flash to stop all wing movement?
