SNAKE AND GLOSS


Sitting down on the deck having a coffee after glossing this log.
Could hear a quiet rustling under me.
I thought it was the skinks running over the fallen leaves.
As I got up to check the board I turned around to see
this 1.5 metre Diamond Python basking in the sun
not a metre from me.
