Diamond Python (Morelia spilota spilota), south of Eden, NSW, Australia.
I was delighted to see this 1.5m python crossing the road. After coaxing it off the road, I grabbed my camera. I can only image you guys that shoot a lot of wild snakes must do a lot of prodding and poking to get them to go where you want for a nice image. This guy just sat there and watched me. My wife wasn't so happy being too scared to get out of the car, hah!
Sommeil confortable ? Je sais que ces animaux font se hérisser les poils de certaines personnes ... Je dois avouer qu'ils me fascinent depuis que je suis allée visiter le zoo de Jersey où il y avait -à l'époque en tous cas - de magnifiques et énormes pythons , boas , langoureusement assoupis sur leurs branches . Cela dit , je préfère les admirer de l'autre côté de la vitre.
Bien sûr j'aurais préféré un mur plus neutre pour la photo mais on n'a pas le choix!!

Snake heads are very flexible. The various parts are not cemented together. From this, you can see that the brain case is very small, while the jaws, with their viciously sharp backward-pointing teeth, are very prominent.
Mangalore / 3 PM / 27 Nov 2011
A twelve foot long rock python was found behind the rear entrance of my house in Mangalore. The snake was left undisturbed and it climbed a low wall and disappeared into the surrounding shrubbery

(Morelia spilota)
This beautiful non-venomous python’s thick body has patterns which are blotchy yellow and black. This species of python is a very familiar face for locals who live near Australia Zoo. The Carpet Python is totally harmless despite its potential to reach lengths of up to 3.5 metres. It is usually active at night and spends most of the day coiled up in a tree or rafter, or stretched out basking in an open area.
Habitat
Carpet Pythons can be found in habitats ranging from tropical rainforest in the north-east of Australia to arid and coastal regions. Pythons from different habitats tend to have their own unique colouration. The species is currently divided into six distinct subspecies. The local subspecies that can be seen around Australia Zoo (pictured right) is Morelia spilota mcdowelli.
Diet
Carpet Pythons can normally be seen feeding after dark. They primarily eat mammals and birds, although smaller pythons prefer to eat lizards. Often encountered in suburban areas, you couldn’t find a better rat catcher. Like most pythons, the Carpet Python has heat sensitive pits on their upper and lower lips, which help them detect the body heat of their prey.
Breeding
Once the female Carpet Python lays her eggs, she will coil around her eggs, occasionally shivering to maintain temperatures at an optimum level for embryo development (approximately 30 degrees celcius).
The Borneo Short-tail Python is endangered due to poaching for its attractive skin. This one is safe at the Serpentarium in Mendoza, Argentina.
