Hi,
BEWARE OF SNAKES
I remember someone reported seeing a snake (Red-bellied Black Snake, I think).
Well I noticed the creek below the area where the bottle was tucked to the
fence had many activities. I heard some crake-like calls and found the creek
was teemed with Skinks. Not surprisingly considering the heat in the late
morning. But I was surprised to see a snake about 1 meter. I think the snake
looks like Eastern Tiger Snake, could someone pls help the ID?

Also found a tree frog basking on horizonal branch of mistletoe. Pls help ID
again. Thank you.
Similar to earlier reports by others, a Brown Honeyeater I photograhed also had
a leg band.
Finally, I did not found the Regent Honeyeater. Considering the rich birdlife
(and also rich with reptiles and amphibians), I am keen to try again for the
Regent Honeyeater.
PS: There were also a lady birder and a young father with 3 little sons. They
left before I discovered the snake and the frog.
ATTN: John, good that your kids stayed in the footpatch and did not stumble
around.
Good luck and be safe to all who are visitng the site next.
Regards,
Tun Pin ONG
