| Hoped out of the car first thing I noticed, i was sharing the grass with a 2m long brown snake. Continued down the tracks and saw a whip snake smoothly gliding along the bottom edge of the train track. It went under a section of the track in a swift manner like this wasn't the first time it had done it, possibly even it's home. At this stage I checked my phone not good reception and I was alone but decided to persist anyway with two long sticks, walking them infront of me to try and deter snakes or give them a fake leg to strike at first. 4km of this was not fun. The tunnel was cool with a nice breeze lots of little microbats, saw a baby drinking milk. All in all. 4km of hell and 1km of cool. But that was just my experience if I didn't see 2 deadly looking snakes it probably would have been alot better. |
