Arrow Tiger snake..

i was watching the new episode of Steve Irwin- Great Escape (good show btw) and i see someone running down my driveway.. I open the door and one of my friends show up and said there was brownie at a school where he was skating.. So i went down and it wasnt a bronie just a really dark tiger snake.. as soon as we wrrived it wrigled back into the bush (could of caught it but dad said no but it was pretty small so would of been hard to catch). So i wanted to know if i go back tomorrow will it still be near by (there is a very nice basking area where we found it).. ill try take some pics tomoz if its there.

Armand - What makes you say it was a Tiger and not a Brown? possible it was Tiger but far more likely a banded brown...

...either way, don't be stupid and try to catch it...

went back today too see it.. unfortunatly it wasnt there but it was definatly a tiger as the tracks he left was much thicker than the one of a brown (so must have been a robust snake).. and i did manage to see the head yesterday and it was very large as well and very distinct..
