Found a carpet python skin in our Lilly Pilly tree - total length just under 2.5m! “A snake only sheds its skin to become a bigger snake” - there must be an absolute unit roaming around here! 🐍

My passion is wildlife photography and I hope I can bring the beauty of nature into your home and show how amazing nature is. Every single animal needs our protection as they all play an important part in our survival.

With my wildlife photography, I hope to showcase a fraction of animals before they are gone. Only what you know, you will love and protect…

Potted python anyone?

Stepped out the back door this morning and glanced down in to one of the empty pot plant pots on the veranda, and there was a Carpet Python happily snoozing in the pot!

Carpet python soup

A mother who's just been nursing her eggs for weeks relaxes in a much needed bath. Reminds me of a children's book I read growing up, "Five Minutes' Peace"

Às dèidh seachdainean air an nead aice, tha a' mhàthair seo a' ghabhail fois ann an amar snog.
