TIGER SNAKE Close Encounter Pt.1

This is a great illustration of how snakes are really NOT out to get you! As he approached I stayed still and as a result he didn't even know I was there. When he got to my boot he detected a funny odour (humans don't use the word "funny" about my boots' odour).. and my slight movement confirmed his suspicions, making him pull back in alarm.

Filmed 30 December 2013 in Suburban Melbourne, Australia.
