snakes alive!

Living in rural Australia means living with snakes.
Some are very dangerous like the brown snake we sometimes see, because we live in sandstone country- you want to stay well clear of them because unlike most snakes who run, these will attack if provoked!
This little fellow however is quite harmless, a green tree snake.


I took these photos some time ago when I sitting on my veranda on the phone to a friend, I saw this snake took the photos and continued talking to my friend who was none the wiser- talk about multitasking!

  1. You did well Deanne. We don't see many snakes in town, although there have been sightings of a brown snake in our yard a couple of times.

  2. I've never been afraid of snakes because we went to a conservation area that let children hold snakes. Great pics!
