I thought it was the hose... 🐍

So I was walking out to my shed with my morning coffee ready for a full day of work printing t-shirts.

It was early and I was still waking up and what I thought was the garden hose at the bottom of the stairs. As I got closer I noticed it started to move!!

And to my suprise it was a green tree snake that looked just like my garden hose haha.

It's coming into winter down here in Queensland Australia so the snakes are on the move alot more.

These green tree snakes are harmless. Even though it gave me a bit of a fright haha.
But I'm sure I gave it more of a fright that's for sure.

He quickly made its way up the retaining wall and wrapped himself up around the pot plant.

They have beautiful colouring with the yellow belly and bright green scales.

He eventually slithered off into the garden.

Then later on I noticed another green tree snake on my shed roof looking down on me.

I wonder if it was the same one??

Maybe I should open up a reptiles and screen printing shop 😁🐍

What a beautiful snake! They can scare you when you don't expect to see one though, but they are more scared of us for sure. As long as they are non venomous I don't mind them hanging around, I never see any here in Orange county in southern California, the place is all buildings with very little open space for snakes to thrive. But in the mountains their are plenty of rattlesnakes, I hate those things. They really scare you when you hear that rattle!

Great shots of your little friend in the yard, it's always fun to see wild life! I hope none of venomous ones decide to pay your yard a visit this year!

I didn't expect to see one looking just like my hose !LOL . And thankfully this one isn't venomous.

I have never heard a rattle snake in real life. It definitely would be unsettling hearing the rattle.

Fingers crossed no venomous snakes decide to drop in to say hello
