    Aww how cute! Her colors are wonderful

    ps. Is that a public park? I don't think I'm ballsy enough to bring my snakes out at a public place. A former friend of mine was contacted by his areas HOA as well as our local police department because he would bring his big female ball python outside for some sun every weekend, and was essentially forced to keep her out of public sight-- they basically told him they've gotten a lot of complaints about a "large python terrorizing children and neighbors", and if they got any more they would give him either the option to surrender the animal or to be banned by HOA from living in the area. All of this because he has big outside dogs in his backyard and felt more comfortable sitting with her on his front porch or lawn. And of course nobody ever politely brought the issue up with him at all beforehand or warned him that some of the neighbors were seeking to get the police and HOA involved.

    Granted this is a suburb with lots of younger kids and toddlers, but it's still absolutely outrageous. And his snake (Big Mamah) is a total sweetheart, but of course personality isn't considered. People would rather ignore or take their chances with a violent dog owned by a neighbor than a shy snake they see maybe once a week and I guess it won't ever make sense to me. Sorry for rambling.
