Today I found a 44 cm long snake skin between the patio chair cushions that are stacked in my lounge.
It is rather frightening to think that I have had a house guest of this nature! 
The skin was obviously turned inside out during the shedding process
A beautiful honeycomb effect where the scales used to be

This is the belly side ....

while the scary end of the snake used to be in here!

A very large Raptor, unfortunately I am unable to identify it.
Perhaps a juvenile?
