There was a snake having a siesta, lying stretched out on my lawn the other day. Now, I don’t know about you but I think that is seriously odd behavior for a snake. Normally as you approach, they slither off. Plus, this snake was kind of lying flat out, like he was listening to music all relaxed and happy in the sun.
I suspect this little fella was probably a grandchild of the Eastern Brown that killed my horse a couple of years ago and I am never happy about them being in my yard. Eastern Browns (and no Melanie it wasn’t a legless lizard) are very active, very aggressive and very poisonous. Let them live out in the paddock but not in my garden.
Back to this odd behavior. I have a Snake Defence or two, little solar operated items which emit a high pitched buzz and are supposed to echo through the ground and discourage snakes. This snake was about fifteen feet from one of them and looked like he just couldn’t make it any closer and he was definitely acting strangely. it does make me wonder if the Snake Defence emitter was having some effect on him.

Oh no, I hope they stay away from the cat and dog!
