The Bandy Bandy Snake is a very special animal. It feeds exclusively on Blind Snakes (Ramphotyphlops). The bandy-bandy snake is a burrowing snake that is seldom encountered. It is well known for a defensive display in which it alternates between thrashing and contorting itself into one or more large, vertically oriented coils, apparently to frighten predators.Saturday, December 01, 2007

nice to find out what type of snake i found today awesome snake watched it burrow back into the mud in one of our well cellars feel priviledged to have seen such an uncommon breed
I just now found one of these on my concrete pathway, about to enter the house. It immediately went into the "loop" defensive pose. We're in northern NSW and it's the start of winter- must have been lost!!
