A homeowner was recently left horrified to see the scene being played out on her roof. Footage shared by Cathy Gall on Facebook shows a huge carpet python devouring a currawong while wrapped around a TV antenna.

Cathy captured the video on the roof of her home in Kingscliff, Australia, on Wednesday morning. After she posted it to a Facebook group called Kingscliff Happenings, the video quickly went viral, reports the ndtv.com.

‘I was mesmerised,’ Cathy told ABC News. ‘I went, 'oh my god that's a python'.’

She says it took the snake an hour and a half to eat the bird, and captioned the video ‘Never seen this before...python trying to eat a currawong on our antenna...’ while posting it online.

Since being shared online, the video has collected over 1,000 'shares' and a ton of shocked comments.

‘Oh that's awful,’ wrote one person in response to the viral clip. ‘This is so Australian,’ another commented. ‘Unbelievable,’ a third said.

Last year, a Burmese python in Florida went viral for eating a deer heavier than itself.
