The Basin campground is great place to search for native wildlife. This Diamond Python was curled up in the rock on the Basin Beach, Ku-ring-gai Chase NP only meters away from the pubic BBQ’s area. The weather was overcast and only 20-22 degrees but very humid.

We had just finished a Paddle Board Safari tour when one of the nice NPWS rangers informed us of the snake chilling on the rocks, and that we should go and have a look. I then passed on the message to the our customers.  The directions given to us were very precise so we found the snake in a short amount of time.

The patterns on the Diamond Pythons are a very impressive natural piece of artwork. Next time you are in the great outdoors try search for other amazing patterns in nature.

Enjoy the outdoors
