I went out to Herdsmans Lake again this morning. Saw my second tiger snake in two days. Yesterday's was a baby, only about 12" long. The one this morning was probably about 4'. So preoccupied with birds that I nearly trod on it. Just as well I didn't as they are particularly venomous.

There was a Great Egret and some Yellow-billed Spoonbills in the marshy area close by. The Spoonbils were busy moving their bills side to side in the mud in search of gourmet delicacies whilst the Egret kept its eye on me.
