Unwanted excitement

This afternoon, when my little terrier was very keen to go outside I looked tthrough the glass door and saw this Redbellied Black snake passing by. When it was heading away from the house I took these images. See also PiPs. The joys of living in a semi-rural area! Redbellies are venemous but not deadly to humans, but are the main cause of canine snakebite, so I hope my terrier doesn't see another when I'm not around!
