IF you are afraid of snakes, look away now.
At first glance, this photo appears to show a typical backyard with an overgrown lawn, a wooden fence, and a clothesline.

There’s a sneaky snake hiding in this back garden…can you spot it?
But look a little closer and you will see a huge snake hidden in the vegetation, can you spot it?
A huge reptile is camouflaged among the bushes in the upper right corner of the image.
Homeowners called snake catchers from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, Australia, after they saw the reptile hiding among plants, with part of its body dangling over the fence.
Experts filmed the scene before asking their Facebook followers to find the creature.
And that is proving to be a difficult task for many social media users.
Jacki Day wrote: “I can never find snakes. I once walked past the biggest snake in Noosa National Park and didn’t see it until my friend pointed it out to me.”
Martin McAvaney guessed wrong: “To the right of the catcher’s bag and equipment at the bottom of the image.”
While many joked that the black tube on the grass was the “missing snake”.
Tim Pulis identified the reptile’s location and wrote: “Top right corner in the bushes. He is big!”
In a separate post, Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers shared an enlarged image of the snake, writing: “Well as most of you will guess the snake was on the fence in the back right hand corner of the photo. The snake is a coastal rug piton.”
Sunshine Coast snake hunters have found that coastal pythons are “extremely common.”

They said they were called in to deal with various reptiles in Queensland.
Coastal carpet pythons are non-venomous snakes that grow to about seven feet in length.
They feed primarily on warm-blooded prey such as rats, birds, and opossums, although larger specimens may prey on family cats and dogs.
Snake bites are not poisonous, but they can cause deep cuts.
But it’s not the only sneaky snake: hidden among this pile of leaves is a reptile.
And one of the world’s deadliest snakes lurks in this pile of grass.
