Another photographer found this Olive Python on one of the ledges in Circular Pool. It was very hard to photograph, I had to bump the ISO to 800 to get anywhere near enough shutter speed, while hand-holding and manual focussing. I ended up using a nearby stick as an improvised monopod. Shot wide open to maximise shutterspeed.

The Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is one of the five largest species of snakes in the world (about the third-largest as measured either by length
or weight). It is native to a large variation of tropic and subtropic areas
of South and Southeast Asia.
They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic,
but can also be found in trees. Wild individuals average 3.7 m long,
but have been known to reach 5.74 m .
Burmese pythons are mainly nocturnal rainforest dwellers. When young, they are equally at home on the ground and in trees, but as they gain girth, they tend to restrict most of their movements to the ground. They are also excellent swimmers, being able to stay submerged for up to half an hour. Burmese pythons spend the majority of their time hidden in the underbrush.
Like all snakes, the Burmese python is carnivorous. Its diet consists
primarily of appropriately sized birds and mammals. The snake uses its
sharp rearward-pointing teeth to seize its prey, then wraps its body
around the prey, at the same time contracting its muscles, killing
the prey by constriction. It is often found near human habitation due
to the presence of rats, mice, and other vermin as a food source.
Burmese pythons are often sold as pets Although this species has a reputation for docility, they are very powerful animals, capable of inflicting severe bites or even killing a keeper by constriction.
(Python regius)
Also known as the 'ball python' native to West and Central Africa.
This non venemous constrictor is the smallest of the African pythons, growing to a maximum length of 182cm (6ft)
Species of python found in Southeast Asia; it is widely regarded as the world's longest snake and longest reptile; specimens as long as 6 meters and weighing 59 kg have been reported. This individual was about 3 meters long.
The "reticulated" net-like patterning of it's scales gives the reticulated python its name.

And what would a snake show be without a giant python being brought out so all the idiotic tourists can have their photo taken with the beast hung around their shoulders?
My hero dad releasing a python at Vision Falls. I loved watching it uncurl itself.
This one killed our lovely white chook.
We have more pythons coming out this year than we've noticed previously, could be due to the new chook pen.
Python Reticulatus
Non venimeux (aglyphe) mais potentiellement mortel pour l'homme par constriction
Répartition : sud-est de l'Asie
Taille adulte : plus de 8m, c'est le plus long serpent du monde
Biotope : il habite les forêts tropicales près de l'eau
Particularités et mode de vie : ce python extrêmement puissant est un grand prédateur. Il peut ingurgiter d'énormes proies mais peut aussi rester plus d'un an sans manger. Braconnés pour leur peau magnifique, les grands spécimens deviennent très rares dans la nature.
Régime alimentaire : gros mammifères, oiseaux
Reproduction : espèce ovipare, 30 à 100 oeufs couvés par la mère

The pattern on this cat looks very similar to a python's - the odd thing is that it was missing a tail.

The Pythonidae, commonly known simply as pythons, are a family of non-venomous snakes found in Africa, Asia and Australia. Among its members are some of the largest snakes in the world. Eight genera and 26 species are currently recognized. Found in subsaharan Africa, peninsular India, Myanmar, southern China, Southeast Asia and from the Philippines southeast through Indonesia to New Guinea and Australia. In the United States an introduced population of Burmese pythons, Python molurus bivittatus, has existed as an invasive species in the Everglades National Park since the late 1990s
Most members of this family are ambush predators, in that they typically remain motionless in a camouflaged position and then strike suddenly at passing prey. They will generally not attack humans unless startled or provoked, although females protecting their eggs can be aggressive. Large adult specimens can kill people. Unsuspecting children can and have been preyed upon and swallowed whole after being suffocated. Reports of attacks on human beings were once more common in South and Southeast Asia, but are now quite rare.
