What a cracker. Wow the AIA really had a bad day on this one. We need more comparative sightings of pythons to improve accuracy of the AI. Thanks heaps for posting this beautiful snake!
Someone asked me about the first photo - the pelicans were swimming along and instead of walking straight out of the water onto the sand bar, two of them actually flapped their wings for a bit of lift to get up onto the bar. The others walked up easily.
