Notes:
Observed basking repeatedly between 10 am and 3 pm in the same spot. Would retreat into adjacent grass tussock after disturbance, but come back out after some amount of time. Weather humid, ~20 C, partly cloudy, no wind. A second snake might have been present too, as the first one seen looked bigger and seemed to have dried mud on it. Possibly a courting pair?
