I managed to get a snap of Bob while he was lounging out in the pond
this morning. The snake is about 4 1/2 ft long. He just sits there,
motionless, until something comes within reach.

And a fine looking specimen he is. In Thailand, Cobras are the most often
seen, although I never saw one. More dangerous were the much smaller
Mambas, whose venom was more deadly, acted faster, and IIRC, for which
there is no anti-venom. We killed three of them on Golf Courses. Never saw
them around ponds. A true snake in the grass!
