Nice images but not great. These are of a friends python we are looking after whilst they are on holiday.
Hope to get some better ones soon.
We have nothing on the people that lived 1000 years before us. I have seen where they lived; and, given their level of tech and population density, they had it pretty good. For a llllliiiiiitllleee while. Like we do, now. So enjoy it; I doubt people will be looking at YOUR house in 1000 years.

Two days before returning from Suriname I was engaged in a phone conversation with Debby while standing on the street. At a given moment I decided to go lean on the fence. As I approached, this little bugger was literally staring me in the face as if desperately wanting to embrace his long lost friend! Several adrenaline rushes, and some D90 clicks later we got a hold of him.
And then came the moment that I decided to kiss the... Python. :-)
BTW, I *think* this is him: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_sebae
Burmese Python (Python molurus bivittatus)
We've found this python on the road on the edge of Big Cypress National Preserve. It is the largest subspecies of the Indian Python and one of the 6 biggest snakes in the world, native to rain forest areas of Southeast Asia. The climate in Florida is very convenient for such species to survive, so being once brought there nearly 20 years ago, it became common snake here. The Burmese python is one of the largest of all snakes, growing up to 25 feet and weighing up to 400 pounds.
This one was pregnant (you can see the bulge near her tail) and was found idly crossing the Tamiami Trail, where we've noticed her and pulled back to the roadside, so the drivers couldn't run over her.

We're still not sure why. There was a group of kids around them picking them up and taking pictures with them.
My ball python stalking after lights out.
This is my male ball python Monty. He's trying to subtly let me know he's hungry.
This lovely lady is a Stimsons Python Antaresia stimsoni. The Stimsons python is a relatively small python in comparison with other Australian python species.
The Stimsons natural distribution range would probably be the largest distribution range of any Australian python. Within this huge distribution range there are several recognized morphs. These morphs were probably the result of environmental differences e.g. habitat, prey and climate differences, over thousands of years.
Generally speaking the Stimsons python is well suited as a captive pet. The temperament of these pythons is quite placid and besides the odd exception they are normally amendable to handling.
This lovely lady Roxanne belongs to the neighbours across the road from my parents. Trev has had her for about 12 years now and in that time she has grown quite a bit!
