What could this be?

[snakey]

Hi all just wondering if any of you people out there know what this is.
Personally i think it's an eastern brown that's what i told the guy out at Tara an hour away from Dalby.He caught it using a bamboo stick and coaxed into a bag.Be interesting to see what you all think very rich red colour.And it also had orange blotches on it's belly.

Its a bad photo so I wont even attempt it but if you could coax it into a bag with a stick its not an eastern brown.

Hard to see the face, but I'd say Eastern Brown, Pseudonaja textilis

Do you know JD from Tara snakey? John Donaldson. He's here, but his parents are still on property outside of Tara. Had a good feed in the pub at Tara. We were heading back from the Gympie Muster a few years back. Cheryl

did it seem to have large eyes? Is a brown colour so Eastern brown is a logical guess. if the eyes were big maybe brown tree snake. The browns I've dealt with are not easy to coax into doing anything. A more detailed picture would be good or perhaps a written description of appearance.
