Qetesh firmly immediately after having recaptured her. The raw
chicken Qetesh is holding on to with her talons was used to entice her

which Qetesh was standing when found by fitter/welder Marc Essiambre.
Qetesh was almost completely hidden from sight by the foliage, as she
stood near the back of the trailer. It would have been very easy
to walk right past without realizing she was there, and Marc is truly a
hero for having spotted her. (Photo by Marcel Gahbauer) |
