As legend has it, the absence of snakes in Ireland is due to Saint Patrick chasing them all into the sea because of a snake attack he had experienced during a 40-day fast he was partaking in on the top of a hill. I'm sure that if the snakes were as beautiful as these, he would have thought twice about banishing them from the land.
