How's this for almost...
This is the biggest problem with mirror less cameras that have screen lag. While you think the subject is in the frame when you shoot, he's already out of the shot, it's almost impossible to predict the real position of a moving target. I certainly missed my DSLR.

I found the same when trying to get pictures of the gulls taking bread out of my hand ,if i timed it like a DSLR i missed it.
Same with my cell phone camera. After some time you get to know how much to adjust for the mirror lag - Aim well ahead and shoot, hopefully the subject would be centered.
As I used to shoot a lot of road condition from the front seat of an SUV, traveling at 50km/h+, I had to adjust for the lag, else the pothole/culvert would be well out of the frame.
I was shooting an American Bittern, when a water snake happened by. Since the bittern wasn't doing anything, I started shooting the snake. Guess the bittern got upset I wasn't paying it any attention and took off. This is what I got.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!

A quick and dirty attempt:
With some work, blending and brushing you might get that shot the way you like it. I think it's not beyond repair. The head will be the part requiring most work.
