Have you ever been to the beach and heard whistles sounded and seen a panic? Well that’s exactly what happened at the One Mile Beach in Forster NSW. A few working holiday visa holders got more than they bargained for.
What Happened?
A 1.5m brown snake appeared on the sand and stayed there until waves washed up against it. One local even managed to take the photo that was featured on The Great Lakes Advocate newspaper.
It is not uncommon for brown snakes to visit sand dunes along the NSW coast in search of a feed.
