What a fascinating picture!
ReplyDeleteI keep on wondering how you manage to find all these animals and to take such great pictures of them...
O my!I'm scared of snakes.But i had one in my kitchen for one whole day,i just saw its shed skin,didnt look up to see the guy on the door.Packed it in a bag and let it free among the trees.
ReplyDeleteHow near did u go to take this pic?
Is it diya bariya or diya naya?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Frieda, MD and K
ReplyDelete@Frieda,
I found all these animals by spending a day at Sinaharaja Rain forest :D
@MD;
I was like 4-5 meters away from it. He is a very tiny snake when comparing to this close up =D
@K;
As they told me it is diya naya. Btw what’s the difference between diya naya and diya bariya? :D
Think both names are used for same snake. I also not sure..
