Moving a flowerpot in my yard in Fiji, and found, possibly predictably enough, a flowerpot snake Ramphytophlops braminus
These tiny guys look exactly like worms to the naked eye, but don't have a central "saddle" and move around in an unmistakably snake-like way instead of curling up into loops like an earthworm.
They are blind, but you can see vestigial eyes in the head shot, and for some reason I don't know, the tail ends in a tiny spike.
They eat ants and termites, so after the photo session I released him back into my garden.
My gardener still doesn't believe it's snake though....
