Taiwan - New Taipei Garden Area, Snake Skin Scarecrow

At first I thought a snake crawled up here and shed its skin.  It's apparent, however, that someone found this on the ground and strung it up here to serve as a scarecrow of sorts to keep wildlife away from the landscaping.

Still, it came from a much larger-than-average snake in Taiwan, and fueled our hopes of seeing one during our jaunts around the countryside.
