I've had him / her at home twice. Last time the dogs played blocker & stopped it from attacking. Today it coiled up behind the pot & had a go at me.

Then followed me down to the garden basically where I was coiling the hose. Persistent little fellow.

    If that had happened to the wife 1) you would have heard the screams from the opposite end of the island 2) the spade would have been brought out to play whistling.gif

    Monocled Cobra. This shot is sort sideways. You can see the hood. Not a happy chappy.

    I'm not a snake expert and the picture is not so clear, but IMHO the "hood" is vertical, not horizontal. If it so, shouldn't be a Cobra but some kind of less dangerous snake.

    Picture is sideways angiud. The snake has it's head tilted. The other pictures didn't come out for some reason, these were with the hood down.

    It is a common Radiated Ratsnake. Non-venomous, not dangerous except they are big biters!

    Thank you for that you are right. A few weeks ago had a cobra in the same spot, I mean like in the pictures with big hood & all, this one looked similar whilst in full flight glancing back .laugh.png

    Whew, I'm happy it isn't a monocled cobra. That's one badass of a snake and one I'd hate to have hanging around my house.

    Its just a pussycat then Rooo! ;-)
