Looks like a carpet python, what area did you spot him?

Diamond python maybe

Hi Barry

I agree it is what we used to call a carpet snake. I haven't seen one for many many years as sadly it seems that the "Eek snake shoot it" brigade dealt with them long ago around here. You we very privileged to see him.

The problem I see is that it was photographed BEFORE it was dispatched!
