Rockin' and Rollin' with the Red-bellied Blacksnake in Lerderderg Gorge!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This vibrant photo captures the mesmerizing beauty of a Red-bellied Blacksnake as it luxuriously basks on a sun-kissed rock in Lerderderg Gorge, Victoria, Australia. With its sleek black scales glistening under the February sun, this reptilian superstar knows how to strike a pose! The Red-bellied Blacksnake, also known as Pseudechis porphyriacus, is an elapid snake that commands attention wherever it goes. Its striking red belly adds a pop of color to its otherwise dark appearance, making it one fashionable serpent. In this snapshot by Robert Valentic from Nature Picture Library, we witness not only the incredible beauty of Australian wildlife but also their fascinating behavior. This scaly celebrity is engaging in thermoregulation - using the warmth of the sun to regulate its body temperature. Talk about multitasking! As we admire this venomous yet captivating creature from afar (remember: no commercial use!), let's appreciate nature's wonders and marvel at how animals adapt and thrive in their environments. So next time you're feeling sluggish on a sunny day, take inspiration from our slithery friend here and find your own perfect spot to soak up some rays!
