Snakes in the neigbourhood

Even though we are officially in spring, the weather is quite warm.Warm enough to bring out the snakes. Les, across the road had a one metre snake in the back yard this morning. Luckily for them the owner of their house and the builder of ours was next door doing some up grading to that house and he came over and disposed of it.

It was a brown snake, one of the deadliest and Brian  dispatched it pretty quickly. As there is a creek at the bottom of the street its not surprising that snakes are around although I have never seen one here except the  little tree snake that was on our back patio a few months ago. Even though the animal zoo hospital came and collected him, I don't think they could have done too much for that one.

Warren has put some sealer around the garage door just in case the brown snake has any siblings around
