This morning I was moving a bit of tarp that had been laying around for a year (or two I can be incredibly slack at times). There was this little fellow coiled up in amongst leaves that had been covered by the tarp. Of course, in typical Childrens style it decided the way out of the situation was straight through me.
At only 45cms long it made me wonder why it considered tackling a full sized human head on was a good strategy. Looked in really good nick, well fed. Contrary to my usual behaviour with herps I caught it, marked out its length and then released it into a safer area. Under the tarp it must have come very close to getting run over by the tractor. Don't think it would have looked so good after that, or been so feisty.
