This evening I was showing my fish pond to some friends who probably wish to remain anonymous. So, I will only refer to them by..oh let's call them MtD & GoW.

Anyway this is what I experienced. In the midst of my tour MtD with his keen eyes noticed a reptile of some sort. He quickly knocked GoW out of the way and in trying to protect me, he accidently threw me into the path of this dangerous animal...

Luckily, it was me and not them that stepped on a snake. So what kind of snake is this?

A small brown swimming snake, I reckon. Bloody vicious things. Lucky for you guys I was there to protect you all.

I feel sure that it was an accident, although you have to admit that you are American so it may not have been an accident

Not sure if it can be eaten or not, I have to ask my dad.

I was waiting for you to weigh in. No comments on the heretofore published version(s) of the evening's events?

You'll have another photo op as the snake will be back looking for frogs.

Anyone ever have problems with snakes eating your ornamental fish in ponds?

09-10-2006, 12:19 AM

It's a rainbow water snake or something isn't it? I was going to get one for my fish tank.

Bung · 09-10-2006, 12:31 AM

Bloody townies.
