Yesterday I took the compost bucket out to the back yard, lifted the lid and there was the skin of a brown snake - about 4 feet long draped across the top. Of course I screamed but no-one at home or next door to hear me! Lately there had been a few mice as I lifted the lid, so I guess the snake was having a feast. I now have to be a little more careful walking around in the yard and veggie patch. We have a number of happy resident frogs which I guess a re an attractant to a hungry snake. It is illegal to kill snakes in Australia but I do have a shovel against the shed and will break the law if I see it!!!!!
