This python was settling down for the night on a precarious branch in the mangroves. About 12 feet below was the Brisbane River. We were just above it on a boardwalk behind the mangroves which are flowering and I think the snake was nicely positioned to grab any bird that came to feed on the nectar. It was a mid-sized snake.
I love snakes, but this is the first time I've shot for skin texture. This particular snake was just massive. Wish I could remember which of the larger python species it is.
Indian python, also known as black-tailed python and Indian rock python is a large nonvenomous python. The species is limited to Southern Asia. It is generally lighter colored than the Burmese python and reaches usually over 9 feet in length.
Lethargic and slow moving even in its native habitat, they exhibit timidity and rarely try to attack even when attacked. They are very good swimmers and are quite at home in water.
These snakes are carnivore animals and they feed on mammals, birds and reptiles indiscriminately, but seem to prefer mammals. After a heavy meal, an individual may fast for weeks, the longest recorded duration being 2 years!
Hope you enjoyed!

Today (3 June 2011) we had another sighting of our friend the Coastal carpet python (Morelia spilota sub sp. mcdowelli) in the pandanus palm at the back of the laundry.
My hairier half, Warwick, was downstairs and he heard the frantic noise the birds make when the pythons are in the poinciana tree, and came across this chap coming down from there via the ‘dick tree’ (our nickname for pandanus palms – it’s a long story!).
I decided on a montage as I thought it was the best way to show him – and also helped to hide the blown highlights in the full stretch photo – it’s hard to get a python from head to tail when he is along a branch! You can just see a bit of tail curl on the lower right of that shot. And I loved the detail one of his underside, something we don’t often see.
So after annoying him for a few minutes we left him in peace to go and have a bask in the sun.

Some of the textures & colors; the hole where the viga burned in, 900 mysterious years ago: worth every calorie no matter how you get there.
I made this cake today and when my daughter walked into the kitchen and saw it, she nearly jumped out of her skin. Inside is a Dark Chocolate Cherry Ripe Mud Cake filled with dark chocolate ganache!

Lady called us at around 1AM about a giant snake in her driveway. This is what we saw when we arrived on scene. 5-6 foot Burmese Python just chillin in the driveway. We called an animal removal company to come and take him away, the guy said it was possible that it was a wild snake.

A Diamond Python or Carpet Snake crossing the road on the way to work. These snakes are becoming rare due to predation by Foxes and habitat loss.
Taking some photos, I noticed some injuries caused by an unknown animal and realised that he needed some medical attention.
After some excellent co-operation between DELWP and Parks Victoria with assistance from James, Kerry, John, Tom, Wes and Mark, the snake is now on his way to the Vet for some TLC and will then be cared for by a local wildlife carer before being released back where he was found.

When thinking about snakes, I thought of the beautiful repetition of the skeletal structure of a snake. I imagined creating a snake skeletal pattern on the black snake using white paint. If the committee thinks its as good as an idea as it sounds, I might consider using glow in the dark paint.
