It's a lovely snake. It was a warm morning and I nearly stepped on it trekking along the bank of Corin Dam. The species is known to be quite placid, this one's response was most spirited, quite like an Eastern Brown. Cheers

On our property, I saw many of these species. There were a number of occasions on which they reared up and got the adrenaline flowing. GeoffR
