Quite a huge one. Good eye contact. Since when have you been travelling to Andaman for photographing snakes? How many species have you photographed till now? If you can write some details about the place in Our Wilderness Update section it would help all to know more about Andaman. Thanks for sharing.

Thanx. Since 2000 Im visiting Andaman & Nicobar, I spend about a month in a year in Islands. About 43 / 45 species of snakes been so far recorded from the Islands, I've photographed about 24 species only. As I get free Some time I'll write about snakes in Andaman & Nicobar.

This appears to have become alert at your approach and ready with its head in the air. Great to know that you have covered more than half. Will eagerly wait for you to complete. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice to know that you have managed to document 24 species. Good luck to complete the rest too. I've noticed most of your pit viper snakes are clicked in 2004. The head life looks nice and the colors in its body are glowing too. Thanks for sharing.
