Snakes in Palau




I hate snakes. I can't help it. Growing up in Hawaii there were no snakes. Sure I saw snakes in the zoo, but not up and personal. Now I know there are many places with large dangerous snakes that would eat these babies in Palau for lunch. But it don't matter, don't like them.


Now going to a waterfall I ran into more than 5 snakes all of a sudden. These snakes were not shy and did not like us being there. Of course, i only had a small point and shoot camera but was able to get a few photos. Wish I would have had the canon with a proper lens. Ironically, got the courage to go the following week with my good camera and not a snake to be found. Go figure.
