A Snake crosses my path.....

Found this Rat snake slithering across the Highway under the 5 O'clock sun. I was on my Vespa, when i saw this, screeched to a halt. The snake stopped in its tracks, and sensing no motion, slithered down the bushes.

I was too mesmerized with the view of the snake's delicate but purposeful movement, and by the time i fished my mobile Cam out of my pockets, the snake had its head in the bushes...

I can imagine nothing more upsetting than seeing a snake on your path - just do not like snakes at all !!

Is it a poisenous one? I used to see tiger snakes (very dangerous) while walking my dog all the time growing up. They generally leave you alone if you leave them alone.

I'm happy with that!

that must be a long snake if its head is already in the bushes. Yikes!!
