Hi everyone,

I relocated this little fella from my front yard today. Can someone ID please? Snake was about 80cm long. Central Coast NSW.

Thanks in advance, Pete.

[Duke999R]

Yes, he seemed very healthy, lots to eat around here!
Was a nice surprise, compared to the usual red bellies. Still startled me though

Its good to see that the picture for I.D isn't a dead snake (reference to a previous thread)

 

[Duke999R]

No worries Moose, I was taught at an early age how to deal with snakes. Wouldn't kill one if it bit me!

Thanks for the ID folks.

Whip snake. Look out, they are venomous (not highly venomous, their venom is very unlikely to kill you unless you have any medical problems. I think only one whip snake bite led to a death). But I'm sure you wont be poking it any time soon
