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

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.
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!
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.
Darwin Carpet Python (Morelia spilota variegata)
I haven't been out looking for snakes since February, it's good to be back!
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.
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.
De rode Pythonbrug, in Amsterdam-Oost, die het Borneo-eiland met Sporenburg verbindt. Onder de brug door zie je het Zeeburgereiland en Schellingwoude.

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 wildlife much recently, but this feisty individual is a nice start to 2022!
Holy Hand Grenade from Antioch - Manual
=========================
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.

This python is native to New Guinea, Indonesia and the Cape York region of Australia. A dazzling herp! This one lives at the OKC Zoo. Our beautiful world, being passed on.

A nice little top down view to show off their cool markings.
Darwin Carpet Python (Morelia spilota variegata)
Smallest of the carpet python subspecies, adult Darwin Carpet python's average around 2m long.
Children's python (Antaresia childreni) and a friendly mosquito.
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.
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.

• Malayopython reticulatus
The world's longest snake, native to Southeast Asia, known for its intricate net-like pattern of gold, black, and brown scales. A non-venomous constrictor. These pythons inhabit rainforests and woodlands near water and can grow over 20 feet long.

Thanks for viewing !
Found this beauty at the back of my university campus, he was stalking some lorikeets! Don't think he appreciated me accidentally scaring away his next meal!
Missy & Mhina
Missy getting a hug from Mhina. These two could not be more indifferent. Missy is quite simple when it comes to the ball pythons: she has no interest. She'll just chill and enjoy the attention I give her. She's more fascinated by the scampering feet of the bearded dragons - they are far more interactive than the boring snakes it seems to her. And well, Mhina has been around all the sights and smells of the house since she was a hatchling (Spring '02) that the only smell she concerns herself with are rats. Rats are a completely different story. lol
Throughout the whole video Mhina is simply moving away from Missy - she seems to enjoy getting exercise and exploring the environment outside of her own enclosure and Missy is simply an obstacle. I only take her out of her enclosure for no more than thirty minutes at a time and only when she gets active, usually at night. She basically indicates when I fool around with her; this was one of those times. I don't forcefully take them out of their hidebox, unless I'm feeding them or they need a quick soaking during ecdysis, to minimize any undo stress such actions may cause.
Yukio touches her tail in the video, which is basically all he ever does, if ever he gets the gumption. Never aggressive, just curious. Under normal conditions I don't advise tail touching with snakes because it can be a sensitive area and they will often jerk away when this occurs. Mhina does not do this. Mhina doesn't seem to be sensitive in this area. I've tested her tolerance quite a bit because of the household I live in and she has shown what her limits are, which is pretty limitless. However, I do not push my snakes. My other BP, Beau, (hatched Spring '02) does not like the whole social aspect with different stimuli; he can be wary of his surroundings and I don't wish to agitate him. Even though he's never been aggressive, I don't take the chance. I adore my ball pythons and the bitch pom too. lol
The green tree python is a species of python native to New Guinea, islands in Indonesia, and Cape York Peninsula in Australia. Described by Hermann Schlegel in 1872, it was known for many years as Chondropython viridis. As its name suggests, it is a bright green snake that can reach 2 metres in length and 1.6 kg in weight, with females slightly larger and heavier than males. Living generally in trees, the green tree python mainly hunts and eats small reptiles and mammals. It is a popular pet and numbers in the wild have suffered with large-scale smuggling of wild-caught green tree pythons in Indonesia. Despite this, the green tree python is rated as least concern on the IUCN Red List of Endangered species.
Thank you for your visit, kind comments
