Coastal carpet python
Morelia spilota mcdowelli

Field Notes
Description:
Our friendly local carpet python, about 2 meters long, out for a bit of a wander round the porch, probably looking for food and a sunny warm spot!
This one has the most intricate, dappled peppery ventral scales I have ever seen on a snake - beautiful!
Habitat:
Most of the eastern QLD coast and northern coastal NSW. Quite common in well-treed suburbs, relatively docile and can get quite large!!
