On the outskirts of Sydney mate.

You went for a drive in the dark specifically looking for reptiles? I'm very suprised you managed to find some anywhere near Sydney.... Must be my urbanised living..
Good stuff!

Not too shabby a night, Bandy's are my favorite snakes by far, pity about their diet. They have a great looking defence strategy, they form loops with their bodies, maybe to show off their bold colours in some sort of warning.

I've always wondered

I've seen a couple out Alice Springs way. I've always wondered where they would find a plentiful supply of blind snakes to eat. Do you know if they eat anything other than blind snakes?

 

[MrBredli]

I've heard of them eating large skinks in captivity, a Blue-tongue i believe it was. They don't feed very often at all, according to research i've read. Apparently 3-4 feeds a year is plenty (if memory serves me correctly).
