S is for Snake | Slaughtered by Sekhmet

As I stepped outside yesterday evening a curious shape caught me eye.

Venturing closer, I saw the snake had a puncture would in its throat (just visible here) and that its vertebrae was damaged in two places. I can only surmise that Sekhmet is responsible for this, as she is for leaving a variety of small cadavers I find dotted outside the house.

On the morning of the 25th December I'd found a really cute little snake in exactly the same place I found this one, which appeared to be dead or very close to it. I brought it inside in the hope that the warmth would revive it, but no such luck.

Does anyone have any idea what type of snake this is?

Sunrise over the sea | 1st Jan 2012

Driving home this morning I'm glad I took the right road back

to see the sun as it rose from the lightening horizon

and as I spotted the tip of the fiery orb emerge

I pulled into one of the very few lay-bys...

Perfect timing!
