So pretty, snake skins. We are virtually in a natural zone here, and there are plenty of extremely venomous snakes in the vicinity. Eastern brown snakes and Red bellied blacks are common. Fortunately they are quite shy…unless provoked. Their venom is lethal. I love to find their shed skins…..
Love to you, Isabel
Here in my area we are lucky, we don’t have venomous snakes (they have venom for rats and other rodents but not harmful to humans). I love snakes but most people hate them, kill them. I am often called to get rid of them when they enter homes, I pick them and take them back to nature. They bite if you don’t pick them up in the right way, but it is not very painful and goes away within days.
Big hugs Diana, love to you too.
In the UK and Norway adders/vipers are quite common and are venomous but not too seriously so. I am still wary of them mind you, but love finding them and just watching them quietly. So nice to find a sloughed skin.
