Afroc ??

Postby MrG » Sun Dec 30, 2007 7:34 pm

Locals at a gamefarm that we visited over the last few days directed me to another dam on the farm with the words there is a snake and this is what I found. About 2m Afroc.

Basking in the early morning sun.

It went into the dam and I only had the 50mm lense with me so the shots are not that good. I spend an hour there and left it still checking me out now and again. :)

You seem to attract nice snakes! I love the natural photos. Even though they are not frame fillers you can learn a lot more from them, eg. Afrocks like taking mud baths!
We must remember that a photograph can hold just as much as we put into it, and no one has ever approached the full possibilities of the medium - Ansel Adams

Awesome MrG. It is a pretty rock python. Was it also at the Magaliesburg location?

Can we arrange to drop off more pythons at this farm? They seem to be reptile friendly (read intelligent) people.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Those who are afraid to ask are ashamed of learning.
