Martin Le-May captured an amazing photo while taking a walk in Hornchurch Country Park in Essex, England. A weasel appears to be hitching a ride on the back of a woodpecker, in flight.

Martin says it was actually a battle for life or death as the weasel was trying to eat the terrified woodpecker for lunch. The frantic bird finally escaped though, leaving the weasel grounded.
