snake
Our boatman Byra came running yesterday morning saying there is a snake inside the tyre at the Boat Jetty!
i rushed there with my camera, to find out a non-venomous watersnake (Checkered Keelback) was inside the tyre.
Though non-venomous but bites like crazy! I slowly picked him up and released, took few pics and also made byra to handle it! to get rid of fear!
And I got one of my Best picture of the snake!
I was handling a snake after a long time, it reminds me of my snake-catching days in Bangalore!

It should have been hard to get the snap with the snake's tongue sticking out like that.. superb shot

Harsha yesterday I dreamt I was bitten twice by a snake ...don't remember which one it was.Just that it was green..and no I'm sure it wasn't a vine snake.

Great shots. Is yours a digital camera? I hope you remember that we met in Bandipur sometime in March 05. It was when Kalyan had called up about the tiger sighting at night? Just to give you the context.

I will start putting up some of my pics too sometime.

Sravan.

Hi... further to this post and comments of [info]yathin in my journal, me adding you on my friends list if you dont mind. Your journal is interesting... and i just love the pics. Replying on this particular post cause this pic is fabulous and it is of a snake... which was how your name was mentioned to me. I confess I know nothing much of wildlife. Just appreciate [info]yathin's and [info]kalyan's journals. :D
