This guy may have been under one of the wild tobacco bushes down near our creek for about a week, judging by the indent he left when I had to persuade it to vacate as I mowed this morning. Found it yesterday, in the same position, still with a sizeable bulge inside it, so I suspect it had eaten a large bandicoot and it's been digesting quietly for the past week. It was well over 2 metres in length
and had a rather large head. The carpets I have seen up here tend to be darker than this guy who was much browner. Very lovely. It impressed our latest Help_Xer, Vivien, from France, who I don't think had seen such a large snake in the wild. He seemed pretty impressed anyway.
