Two neighbors have recently sent photos of poisonous snakes found on properties on Mersey Drive, yes folks we live in the forest and nature exists along side us. Be sure to wear gloves, good boots and stay safe. Dead leaf piles, rocks, and wood piles are favorite hideouts, but as you see these boys are out in the open.
Photo shared by Craig Power, also a Mersey resident. His friend, John Grayson estimates this snake is maybe 4 feet long, or close to it. He looked in Wikopedia and it says record length coral snakes are just under 48 inches (4 feet). "I might have a record -- or at least top 10 -- coral snake", said Power.
