Lunar New Year

This year, January 29 is the first day of the Lunar New Year, (on the Chinese zodiac) being the Year of the Snake. Read about the symbolism of it here. Happy Lunar New Year, everyone.
An archival photo from my former rural property, I think it's a White Lipped Snake (Drysdalia coronoides). These are venemous but timid by nature.

Splendidly caught, George!
My house is close to an official Chinese delegation (Macau) and I haven't seen anything mentioned in the vitrine yet.
