蛇出沒注意 Beware of snakes!

不太清楚是平常沒注意還是甚麼
今天一次過看見三條蛇3551em015445

兩條是中午前後於鐵絲網路旁乾草堆捲成餅曬太陽
一條未被看清楚便向塘邊草叢逃去
（和乾草近色但偏灰綠，鱗片光滑，沿背脊有細紅線？估計約1米）
一條貌似飯鏟頭3551em015445

拍攝時間1328，照片GPS位置如下

另一條4時左右大路旁塘游水蠎（向路旁草叢游去
估計有1.5米
亦是未開相機就失蹤


雖然很多人都騎單車
但眼見亦有步兵和工友開工
想特別提醒留意勿行近路旁乾草
觀鳥之餘注意足下

另請問一下見蛇是不是需要報告
如要報告應報給哪些單位和如何報告
謝謝各位

Snakes usually avoid close contact with human, I see snakes often in MP and usually they will just slither away when you get too close. Most snakes can detect human simply by the vibration our foot step caused while we walk, so very often they will be gone before we know it, even if you do see one they will often just look for a place to hide. Snakes will only bite as a last resort, they much rather keep their precious venom for their prey. I am sure there's no need to report the sightings, birders should just keep a look out at where they are stepping on.

Maybe ratsnake, Indo-Chinese or Oriental，可能是灰鼠蛇(過樹榕)：

在草堆裏也見過，似棱蛇之類，正享用大餐，所以唔阻它發大。地盤會貼出警告，方便辨認：[attach]32778[/attach]

That is a Chinese Cobra.  Chinese cobra are usually a dark colour but a "golden" form is sometimes encountered, mostly in the NW New Territories.  

Snakes are really not interested in biting us and will move off as Matthew says. Just take care and be aware when in long grass.

師兄不必緊張，米埔連眼鏡王蛇（過山烏）都有...

Snake is a norm in MP, as King Cobra is also recorded here...

我都於27-12-2017米埔遇到蛇, 小心, 小心

Checkered Keelback, I think. In my experience, this is the commonest diurnal snake at Mai Po. It's non-venomous.
