No Bob,
That would be akin to shed tidying

G'day Noel, It wasn't a snake burrowing into your shed floor. Snakes can only burrow through soft, loose soil. They have hard plate like scales on their nose for this purpose, but they cannot dig into hard, compacted soil or limestone etc. They tend to move in to empty burrows or holes after someone else has done all the hard yakka. Whatever it was probably dug down & then chucked a rightie.

Barry.

We'll see what the morning brings.

"We'll see what the morning brings." Quote Noel.

Best o' luck to you Noel, I hope that it's nuffik too scarey.
Regards,
Barry.

Seen lots of holes like that.
Left by a creature that has burrowed to the surface and has gone.
I would say "cicada" except it is not the season?

Next question is ...... Where is it hiding now?

You never know... next week you might go out to find BHP has set up a drilling rig in yer shed, if the exploratory tests come back with good results...

They was big fat frogs!!
Another three holes this morning and the third one was still in progress. Eventually, a big fat frog burrowed its way out.
Don't they know its a drought??
Thanks for all the suggestions and the fun

come out of hibernation?

G'day John,
Probably, but they picked a bad time....paddocks are drying off, the dam here is drying out.......
But you were right....something coming out....not going in.
Funny stuff

Hey, Noel this morning found a hole just like yours in my back yard in hard bare earth. It will be interesting to see what develops.

I reckon the 50 cent coin near the hole is a dead give away - It's where the tooth fairly lives
