Mum’s warning after terrifying discovery in photo

The little girls were having a great time out in nature.

A VICTORIAN mum got the fright of her life on Wednesday when she was out bushwalking with her young family.

Stacee Chapman and her partner Jake took their 16-month-old twins for a wander in the sunshine at Kings Billabong near Mildura in Victoria.

The Mildura-based makeup artist took a series of photos of her daughters Isla and Ava as they trampled through the bush. Little did she know that one of her happy snaps would make her sick to her stomach.

At one point during the excursion Jake, who Stacee calls the "calm" one, realised the children were in serious danger - he saw a suspected brown snake slithering through their legs as they walked.

Stacee spotted the snake in the bottom left hand corner of the picture. 

He immediate grabbed the girls out of harm's way.

"He was prepared to get bitten for his kids. It happened quite fast, but he scooped up both girls placed them with me and stomped behind the snake and it slid away," Stacee told News agency.

Snake filmed eating pigeon in London street

Dave Fawbert spotted the boa constrictor, thought to be an abandoned pet, on High Road, Leytonstone, on Saturday morning.

The RSPCA has since taken the reptile to a wildlife centre and is appealing for information about how it may have come to be in the street.


Many described the animal as a python, but the RSPCA confirmed it is a boa constrictor.

Mr Fawbert said when he discovered the animal on the pavement between a parked car and a row of shops one passer-by screamed.

But soon a big crowd gathered, he added.


Rachel Garland, 29, from Stratford, who filmed the video, said: "It was really cool, you never see anything like that."

"I wasn't scared because it was moving so slowly and it was completely wrapped up in its pigeon. It was just trying to eat the pigeon, it wasn't taking any notice of all the people."


"This guy then picked it up by its tail as it was wrapped around the pigeon and put it in a cardboard box."

RSPCA inspector Rebecca Bedson, who removed the snake, said she was keen to find out how it came to be in such a dangerous situation+. She added: "Anything might have happened to him, he could have been run over by a car or attacked by another animal."

Hafez - Persian poet who lauded the joys of love and wine.

Khwāja Shams-ud-Dīn Muḥammad Ḥāfeẓ-e Shīrāzī 




Hafez, who was a 14th-century poet in Iran, is best known for his poems that can be described as "antinomian".

Themes of his poems are the beloved, faith, and exposing hypocrisy. In his poems, he deals with love, wine and tavern, all presenting the ecstacy and freedom from restraint, whether in actual worldly release or in the voice of the lover speaking of divine love.

His influence in the lives of Persian speakers can be found in "Hafez readings" (fāl-e hāfez, Persian: فال حافظ‎) and the frequent use of his poems in Persian traditional music, visual art, and Persian calligraphy.

Tahoe brothers survive lightning strike.

Three Tahoe-area brothers were struck by lightning while hiking the Pacific Crest Trail near Skykomish, Washington.

Three Brothers
Austin, Dylan and Garrett Murtha set out June 28 to hike the entire PCT south from the Canadian border when they began to scramble down a granite face as storm clouds approached last week, said Greg Murtha, the boys' father.

"It was a 15- to 20-minute lightning storm," he told KCRA by phone. "Austin was thrown 15 feet by the force of the strike. He was unconscious for seven minutes. My oldest son revived him ... and they hiked out 60 miles to Skykomish and the cardiologist said he was lucky as hell he survived."

Videos sent to KCRA3 by the Murtha family show red scars on Austin's leg where the lightning shredded his shorts, his hat and his poncho. A portion of his cold-weather jacket appeared to have melted.

"(My hat) exploded off my head. I don't even know," said Austin in one of the videos.

The brothers did not let the incident deter them from their quest to hike the entire 2,650-mile north to south route. The trio continued their journey after seeing a doctor who performed an EKG on Austin.

"Austin picked up the trail name 'Tone' from other hikers, because he couldn't hear anything for three days due to the ringing in his ears," Greg Murtha said.

The trio is expected to pass through the Tahoe area around Labor Day with an expected completion of the entire journey by the end of October. They are carrying camera equipment document and create a virtual reality tour of the PCT for Greg Murtha's Xplorit company.

"I got struck by lightning. I'm alive. That's a good thing right?" said Austin Murtha.
