Fuck that. I will let that plant flower and not touch it. Is that normal???!!! 
Green bush snakes are common here. They are non venomous, the mambas and puffy's are the ones to watch out for....

......and are they common aswell??? 

I've lived in this area most of my 4 decades. There is bush, veld and forests all around us here. Encountered a few...

 

The good.

Many bush snakes, rescued a number of red lip heralds and 1 or 2 brown house snakes and a small rock python.

 

The bad.

Mozambique spitters, Green mambas, rinkhals.

Relocated by the local snake catcher... I'll corner them with a long pole so the don't disappear and wear glasses for the spitters.

 

The ugly.

Black mambas, puffy's, night adders and gaboon adders.... I stay the f$@k away from. Black mambas are the worst and they are much faster than you think.. lightning quick.

 

Identification/education is the key,

I studied a few books. If you know which ones are non venomous and which aren't, it helps a lot. People shouldnt blindly go about killing all snakes, they control many pests and vermin.

I still have nightmares about a confrontation I had with a black mamba while learning to drive by myself in sugar cane fields on the Natal north coast. The mamba lifted up from the right fender and tried going for me through the windscreen. Have a huge amount of snakes around me, shame girlfriend almost stepped on a puffy this week while tending the goats. As long as they not around my animals I have no problem with them and always try and relocate snakes. Out dangerous snakes in EC are cape cobra, rinkhals and puffy.

Below are a couple other entries I would like to enter to this months POTM.
