Peninsula Brown Snake in Inneston SA 5577 (Oct 2025)

Extremely cool watching this snake hunting for about 15 minutes. At one point it dug around under a rock for a bit, and this Marbled Gecko (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/324830860) ran out to about a metre away. After slowly stalking and just barely missing the gecko (photo 7), it eventually had another go and successfully devoured it while alive and squirming. In less than a minute it was straight back to hunting.
