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.

Just Before Arriving at O'Reilly's is a gap in the forest, and there are two tracks way: one to the left leading to Morans Falls and another to the right leading to Python Rock. Let's go first to Python Rock throughout the magnificent rainforest in the Green Mountains section in Lamington National Park. It is less than 44°F. The walk took about 45 minutes when we arrived into an open eucalypt forest to the lookout over Python Rock and Morans Falls (we'll go there pretty soon).

Juste Avant d'Arriver à O'Reilly's une trouée dans la forêt laisse apparaître deux petits sentiers : Un mène à Python Rock, et l'autre à Morans Falls. Prenons d'abord le plus court, on ne sait pas ce qui nous attend. Bien qu'il fasse très frais (moins de 7°C), la ballade en forêt est agréable. Toute la végétation des forêts primaires est là pour le plaisir des yeux. Il nous faudra pas loin de 45mn pour arriver sur une forêt d'eucalyptus qui donne vue sur Python Rock, mais aussi sur Morans Falls où nous irons ensuite.

it's easy to see how this snake-like red steel bridge earned its name of Pythonbrug or (Python Bridge). Designed by West 8 and built in 2001, the Pythonbrug connects Sporenburg peninsula with Borneo Island.
this might not be the best shot of the bridge, but I like the high contrast sunset light, and the way the colours reflect in the water...

Chesterfield Canal, Shireoaks
The historic narrowboat Python, now owned and operated by the Chesterfield Canal Trust, was built in 1929 for Fellows, Morton & Clayton Ltd by W J Yarwoods & Son of Northwich and was fitted out at Uxbridge. Commissioned in February 1930, her fleet number was 249 and her registration number was UXB 572. She was built on the same works number as her sister boat Panther, which is now owned by the Coventry Canal Society. Python also used to be the motor to the butty Fazeley, which is now fully restored. Of coppered steel construction, she was originally built as a 70' vessel with a Josher bow* and fitted with a Bolinder 5 hp engine. Python was used as a carrier in the Fellows Morton & Clayton fleet until 1949 when she was sold to the British Transport Commission (later to become British Waterways Board) and passed into the South Eastern Division carrying fleet. In 1960 she was given a major overhaul and fitted with a new engine, and in 1974 became part of British Waterways' maintenance fleet when she was subsequently shortened to 53' in 1982 and her cabin rebuilt to the current format of rear engine room, crew cabin and forward store. But with the introduction of more modern, purpose built vessels she was soon to become redundant and fell into disuse for a number of years. After a lengthy period of neglect Python was handed over to the Chesterfield Canal Trust in 2009 who have a team of volunteers dedicated to ensuring her care and maintenance as a promotional vessel for the work of the Trust. Python is currently decked out as a tug and repainted in British Waterways' blue and yellow colours. She is also registered on the National Historic Ships register.
Josher Bow
A distinctive bow design named after Joshua Fellows of Fellows, Morton & Clayton. The long, slender bow with its double curvature became a specified company style, almost a trademark. Some replica narrowboat designs incorporate false rivets to simulate the construction method used on the original vessels.

Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults can grow to over 8.7 m (28 feet) in length] but normally grow to an average of 3-6 m (10–20 feet). They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are nonvenomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans. Although large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult human, attacks are only occasionally reported.
An excellent swimmer, Python reticulatus has been reported far out at sea and has colonized many small islands within its range. The specific name is Latinmeaning net-like, or reticulated, and is a reference to the complex color pattern.

Python 08/02/2018 14h03
The Python is undergoing a full renovation between January and March 2018. After about 36 years it was time to renovate this famous roller coaster. Perhaps one of the first roller coasters in Europe that was considered cultural heritage. The last ride was made on the 5th of January and the demolition started on Monday 8th January. After one week more than half of the tracks were dismantled.
The new Python (lets call it Python verson 2.0) is sheduled to re-open the last week of March or early April.
Python
Python is a double-loop Corkscrew roller coaster in the Efteling amusement park in the Netherlands. When it started operation, it was the largest steel roller coaster on the European mainland.
With Python, Efteling started the implementation of a new strategy: development from a fairy-tale forest into an all-round amusement park. This change led to many problems with the local community. Environmentalists tried to get the building permit withdrawn, and the park's neighbors feared more problems arising from growing visitor numbers. Because of the likely noise pollution, the highest court of public justice ordered the construction to be stopped. After some time, construction could recommence, but legal problems continued for several more years.
In 2005 the trains were replaced by Kumbak Coasters designed by Karel Willemen and in December 2011 with Vekoma MK1212 trains. In mid January 2012, the python was fitted with new carriages. These new cars have a new set of restraints which accommodate the needs of riders large and small. There is a flexible over the shoulder strap which is not unlike those on accelerator coasters such as Kingda ka but slightly thicker. Over these are metal bars for riders to hold on to and to give support to the under straps. Also, the cars have been fitted with wheels that allow a smoother ride.

My two big burmese pythons shortly before I took them to my brother to take care of...last time I saw them alive. I was in the Navy at the time and was getting deployed and he agreed to watch them while I was gone, it didn't work out very well.
A little about the two snakes, the larger one I bought from a pet store very cheap since they got it from someone who caught it 'wild' in San Diego and it had bit several store employees. It was already eight feet long at this time so it was leaving 1/4inch teeth embedded when it was pried off. I took it home and it took about a year to get it tame enough to hold safely as long as it was nowhere near it's cage. I used to leave it in the living room where it would crawl under the cushions on the back of the couch leading to a scaley surprise when one sat down. It never once tried to bite me or anyone else while out of the cage, while in it's cage however it was mean and nasty, trying to bite even through the screen on the side.
The smaller snake was only a year old when I took this photo and was already eight feet long. I found they will eat far more than once a week or so, like every day. Both of them ate five pigeons and many rats a week and got testy if I slacked off on that routine.
