✒ Snakes and mirrors
- Snakes have very poor eyesight and basically only use it to track movement.
- I couldn't say for sure, but I'd guess that the "looking" into the mirror is probably either your snake just tracking the difference in movement of light or possibly an interest in the movement it senses without a correctly corresponding infrared signature.

✒ About Snakes
- Snakes are elongated, legless, carnivorous reptiles of the suborder Serpentes.
- Like all other squamates, snakes are ectothermic, amniote vertebrates covered in overlapping scales.
- Many species of snakes have skulls with several more joints than their lizard ancestors, enabling them to swallow prey much larger than their heads with their highly mobile jaws.
- To accommodate their narrow bodies, snakes' paired organs (such as kidneys) appear one in front of the other instead of side by side, and most have only one functional lung.
✒ About Snakes eyesight
- Snakes have infamously poor eyesight, which is why they resort to sticking out their tongues all the time to get a sense of their surroundings.
- At least for one snake species, when the slitherer feels threatened, it controls the blood flow to its eyes to ensure that its sight is unobstructed, a new study found.
