Two interesting characters...
Saw a dirty-big snake today, our first on this rocky, hillside property. It was a brown snake, possibly an eastern brown snake, probably about 5-6 foot long. I believe both species are deadly, the eastern variety just does the job a whole lot quicker, a few kilometers shorter.
Mr Snake was slithering his slimy slenderness toward the house, just 20 feet away, but the car I was driving frightened him off in another direction, thankfully. We could have collided. It is rather wierd thinking I live amid potential death, all around waiting to be stepped upon or run into.
Such is life, yet, I think the roads are more dangerous, especially if you met some crazy dude racing wildly to hospital, poisoned out of his brain by some random snake bite, trying to get there to casualty before he carks it. Remind me to make sure I miss them.

Came across this guy in blogsville today, Geof Huth, he is definately worth checking out...
I know there is someway to put his blog into a list of links but I'll be bloggered if I can concentrate enough to do that, at least at the moment.
