Snake in the Trees!

Hi Ya! Wonderful to see you today. Thanks for clicking by. Coffee's fresh, virtual treats are right out of the virtual oven and I'm virtually bursting to tell you about the snake in our trees. Yup! This critter is less than an inch around with a skinny, almost flat, head but at least a metre long. And... it's bright green so in a bush or tree, it's hard to spot. Here are some pix and a challenge...find the snake!

Later, it wandered across our driveway to one of our 'Fum -fah' bushes (bougainvilla). Hard to see but it is stretched right across from the lower left to upper right...

Then, I caught it trying to cross back. Look at the thing...head at least a foot off the ground and tail still curled around a branch a metre or more at the other end. Eventually it crossed our tiny lawn, up another tall bush and disappeared into a neighbour's yard.

These snakes are not dangerous but there's similar one with a black tail that is. Our neighbour found one and, being Buddhist, did not kill it. Instead, he plopped it down the drainpipe. So, smartarse me, I told Nong she'd have to be careful sitting on the toidy because the snake might come up our drain and bite her on the butt! She didn't appreciate my humour.

See ya, eh!
