Thank you for flying Flicker Airlines:



LONDON — So here's a weasel on a woodpecker.

The furry hitchhiker was caught on camera in east London's Hornchurch Country Park by photographer Martin Le-May and caught the attention of a Twitter user on Monday night.

While it might look like an adorable pairing, Le-May reckons the wily weasel had supper on its mind.

“As we walked we heard a distressed squawking and I saw that flash of green," he told reporters.

'Cause that can be--although rarely necessary--a critical piece of life-saving and life-changing good advice.
