michali Posted February 24, 2009 Share #1 Posted February 24, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) M8 & 90mm ELMARIT Vine snake, deadly, however not agressive, lives in trees. I came accross this one in a tree (obviously) outside my bedroom. It's amazing how well they're camouflaged and blend in with the tree.

andit Posted February 24, 2009 Share #2 Posted February 24, 2009 Hi Mike, Excellent shot. How did you find this one or did you know he was there? That 90mm has a really wonderful way of painting with light. Well done and thanks for sharing with us. Andreas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted February 24, 2009 Share #3 Posted February 24, 2009 You don't see them that often, I think, but they must be quite common. They are backfanged if I recall correctly? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas thank you, I heard a couple of weavers going completely crazy in the tree and I figured there must be a snake upsetting these birds. had a good look around and saw the snake. QUOTE: Jaap, yes they are back fanged, a timid snake, but as I mentioned very venomous and there is no anti-venom for its bite. Stuart, Soohn, Martin, David, Ben & Virgil- Thank you taking the time to comment, always appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
