I know sometimes I will go into my room and there will be some snakes right up against the glass, totally knocked out. If I tap on the glass gently they won't even budge, but if I slap the glass hard they freak out and are looking to defend themselves vigorously. It's quite funny as I do it to my monocled cobra Blondie all the time; that girl is totally knocked out in sleep and I scare the crap out of her.
Hmm Adders just under the tracks in the beach sand eh! walking into the bush tracks to the beaches of a night could be the one to watch then. Funny hey, we'll paddle out and surf a full moon in black water, but sh!t bricks the whole way down there and back now.
Snakes are only 1/2 your problem; you gotta be insane to go into the water at night. You got jellyfish, stonefish, sharks, blue ringed octopus. Do you guys have nets set up around where you go in the water?

Here's a guy on another forum I go to. He's from Melbourne and gets called out ot alot of snake rescues. He knows his Oz elapids for sure. Don't know if this link will work.

Hot March
