Rescued Scrub Python

Found this Scrub Python (Morelia amethistina) after being told by some bike riders, in Etty Bay, that it was coiled partially on the road and too cold to move.

 

Picked it up (it was too cold to even lift its head) and put it in a sunlit tree, and within minutes it was back to smelling the air and moving around.

 

I mis-identified it as a Carpet Python, but my friend Jeremy corrected me.
