@Chakola I can see four different species in the five photographs provided. Can you please split this sighting up?

You can tell it's a Tiger Snake (Notechis scutatus) by the distinctive frontal scale, which is a large, squarish scale on the center of its head, roughly as wide as it is long. The face also looks like a Tiger Snake if you're very familiar with them.
