Thanks all! Tree snakes aren't poisonous, although, the brown ones are more agressive than the green and blue ones. #10114607

Stunning animal "portrait", Debbie!
That eye-to-eye pose with the tongue out, plus the composition and dof, pretty much guarantee a golden plaque later this (new) month. I'll look forward to seeing it again soon. #10115713
