I’m back!
Had to go to the Pub and have a SHOT,
Of Rum of cause.
The snake had to have a tetanus shot.
To prevent it from becoming sick after bighting me. lol

It's one of your children's pets? I've never had a shot, hope you had fun!

Dewitt, MI(Zone 5b)

If it is one of Ginger's kid's pet then it would be a children's Children's Python.

What kind of Rum?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

"Bundy"
Need you ask?
Bundy is made here in QLD.
In a small town called Bundaburg.

What's the counter the snake is on above? And I meant booze. I'm not a drinker, so I've never done a shot of booze, I have had many tetanus shots though.............

Day 6 Mother is much more receptive to me.
1 week ago I coulden`t even get a Pic. of her.
I have left the Pic. big so you can see green insect in her mouth.
As soon as I reduce the Pic. You can`t see it.

The counter is my studio work bench.It`s where I Paint,
Sculpt, Draw, Make stained blass windows, And Fish Tanks.
And now, take Pics of snakes.

I think the pics are resized when posted. With my nifty magnifying glass, I can make out something in her mouth, just not real clear. And again, what counter is the snake on above?

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

We're typing over each other.......sorry! So the name of the snake is Children's snake. It's not one of your children's snakes? Yes? How'd it get on you counter in there?

Another example: I had never heard of Children's python. It struck me that a snake is not a normal children's toy thing so I looked it up in the Wikipedia...

Children's python (Antaresia childreni) is a species of python that lives in northern Australia. The name is not derived from a relationship to children, but in honor of John George Children, who was a curator of the zoological collection at the British Museum in the 19th Century.

I also found out (in the same article) that in Australia you can keep a Children's python if you have a class one reptile license which costs $60 and that they live 25 to 30 years.

Ginger, you live in an extremely interesting and beautiful country!

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

Nice to know I'm not the only one to have never heard of it. I'm also not and never have been in Australia, so can that be a good excuse?

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Sure terryr.
You are excused.
Ignorance is bliss.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Still day 6.
I think one of them is going PUNK.
Black Mowhair.
You can see feathers breaking through.
You can see the front ones ear,
And the back ones eye lash.

Yes, ignorance is bliss....lol....

Now why does mama make such a small nest? And I thought my robins were crammed into a small nest!

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

terryr
To cut down on house work of cause.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

why dahlink I never thought of that! silly ole moi.........

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

Those silly old snakes just don`t give up.
I was repotting my Cannas when this jumped out and said ,
Come to think of it, It didn`t say anything. Snakes don`t talk.
This was a 2 foot Carpet snake. Quite harmless.


What did the Wave say when it met the shore???
Nothing, It just gave a Little Wave.

Brisvegas, Australia(Zone 12b)

But it`s a good pic all the same.

Hey Ginger, Thanks for the great photos. We have Monk parrots here in Brooklyn, New York.They escaped from JFK international airport in the late 60's and have been part of our community ever since. Two weeks ago, a pair began to make their nest by a telephone transformer in front of our garden. They eat anything, including a good Brooklyn bagel.:)

Adele, that's very interesting about the Monk parrots.

Stelco
Coulden`t see it.
I would have to load Windows Adobe Flash Player Download Center .
With my Dial up connection, That would take 20 mins.
I hope others can see IT.

Bureau County, IL(Zone 5a)

It's a video that was a forwarded email that made the rounds last spring. It a bud or bud light commercial staring what the guy calls, a Brazilian Fighting Cockatoo. Cockatoo goes after a guy who's trying to get to the beer.

Your photo isn't what I'd call my blurry. You don't wanna see what I call blurry and am really good at taking......

That nest is so different from those around here and I still can't get over her making it under your deck at such a low level. Your babies are beautiful.

Equilibrium
I believe she built it there for security.
She knew we were so close by.
And she just kept building.
Roof rack of my Ute is 5" away from nest
When I drive into Garage.
"safety in numbers I guess."
