16 deg here in my area of Qld today.
I have no pythons in my ceiling now but when we lived in Northern NSW, there was one regular visitor between the camphor laurel tree and the roof. It was about 3 metres long, we were in midst of getting new lighting installed in a sunroom and there was a gap in the plasterboard ceiling, it made it's way down to the wall unit below and curled up there, sleeping.
My OH got a fence paling and encouraged the visitor to curl around it 
while my daughter and I held a tarp for him to drop it in.
Needless to say, it was way too smart and too heavy anyway, so he had to carry it out on the paling! We sold the house some years leater and the new owners had it relocated after finding it asleep in their bird cage.

no, all parrots present and alive, perhaps he was saving them for later.
