As covid-19 has kept our visitors away, our inhabitants are making use of our beaches. This time a Balkan whip snake. Certainly an unusual sight and definitely even more rare capturing one swim on video.
These snakes are usually located in our fields but this particular one obviously wanted to cool off and ended up being swept out to sea.
As the video shows it was struggling to get back to shore hindered by young men who didn’t want the snake heading in their direction.
