Known as one of the largest snakes in the world, the Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is a species of snake that has grown in popularity over the last 10 to 20 years, and can be found starring in many social media videos on the internet. Mainly, the fascination with the Burmese is their unique method to catching and eating food. In general, most burmese python snakes grow between 9 ft to 20 feet in length and can weigh up to 200 pounds! Pythons are constrictors, which means they kill prey by coiling their bodies around their food and “constricting” it until it suffocates.

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and I really appreciate your fave or comment!

Only 6 months old and SO beautiful. I was captivated by this little Royal python. Taken at a photography day with CaptiveLight in Bournemouth.

Close up of my first encounter with a reticulated python during a night walk through a forest in Singapore.

Lors de la Grande Fête de la Nature, sur les Plaines d'Abraham, Québec, le 16 mai 2010, l'Association herpétologique de Québec était présente et j'ai pu l'admirer et surmonter ma crainte des reptiles en l'approchant d'assez près, hésitant même à le caresser.

Cairns Spotted Python (Antaresia maculosus).

Found with head protruding out of a roadside drain on the driveway in torrential rain. Cairns FNQ. 2 metre sub-adult male.

The Royal Python is also known as Ball Python as they tend to curl into a ball when they are stressed. They are a non-venomous species and the smallest of the African pythons although they still reach a maximum length of 182 cm (72 in). Apparently they are very popular pet snakes.

I took this photo at our zoo.

=========================

First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shallt thou count to three, no more no less.

Three shall be the number you shalt count and the number of counting shalt be three.

Four shant you not count, neither count thou two, exepting that thou proceed to three. Five is right out.

Darwin Carpet Python (Morelia spilota variegata)

One day this snake may grow to be over four-metres long and be Australia's heaviest snake, but for now it is a terror to only frogs and geckos!

Measuring under a foot long, this baby python was found crossing the road just outside of Berry Springs in the Northern Territory. Like most growing pythons it showed a lot of attitude whilst being ushered off, a very understandable survival tactic.

 

Unfortunately a lot of wildlife fall victim to cars on rural roads and I highly encourage people to slow down and keep an eye out for any unusual shapes on the road, especially at night!

These snakes look threatening but they are no problem around the the house if outside . This guy is looking to have a drink , I think or just sensing the scene .

I haven't been out looking for snakes since February, it's good to be back!

Children's python (Antaresia childreni) from the Katherine region, was a lot more orange tinged than the ones I usually see in Darwin.

 

I usually try not to post two of the same type of animal in a row, but I haven't seen anything else too interesting lately unfortunately.

I haven't been out looking for wildlife much recently, but this feisty individual is a nice start to 2022!

We chanced upon a Carpet Python while on the way down after our guided night tour to see the Glow Worms at Tamborine Mountain, Australia.

As it might seem, the python was on the road making its way across to the other side, totally ignorant of the peril situation it was facing. Therefore we decided to use abit of our time, to help the python to cross by using the torchlight from our handphone to alert the oncoming vehicles to stop momentarily for the snake to reach the other side.

One of my personal favourite models from my recent photography day with CaptiveLight in Bournemouth. This Royal python is only a youngster and really beautiful.

I haven't been out much due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so here's an alternative shot from earlier this year.

 

I prefer the patterned shot from above [LINK] but I love is position and that there's a mosquito for scale in this photo.

Python Bridge officially known as High Bridge (Hoge Brug), is a bridge that spans the canal between Sporenburg and Borneo Island in Eastern Docklands, Amsterdam. It was designed by Adriaan Geuze of the architecture firm West 8 and built in 2001.

Black-headed Python (Aspidites melanocephalus)

 

First one I've ever seen in the wild, and now finally checked off my list. Extremely shiny heads, I don't know how people get good shots of them, but I did my best haha.
