Another Snake to add to the collection


A common water snake. Harmless to man but quite an angry little snake that will try and bite you. Rarely seen on land and nearly always found in water. This poor fellah was discovered munching on tadpoles that were in a water barrel. We hooked it out of the water on a stick to take the photos. Although a water snake it does not have the paddle shaped tail like the marine versions.
