Tiger Snake in Glen Allen NSW 2631 (Mar 2021)

Curled up under a log on a chilly morning. The head is not visible, but the body was thick and faintly banded. Highlands Copperheads and Red-bellied Black Snakes are the more usually encountered species around this montane bog at 860m elevation, but this snake was too large for a copperhead and certainly isn't a black snake (both of which we also saw on the day). Despite the poor view of it, I am pretty sure it is a Tiger Snake.

Note: This sighting was recorded on iNaturalist and may contain additional scientific observations.
