This was while releasing it back in the wild, Where it belongs we thought to click some pictures of it as i did not had pics of juvenile green keelback as soon as i removed it from my snake bag it spread its hood like cobra and stood in front of me it was very beautifull watching it stand like that... Had always heard about juvenile green keelbacks flattening their neck in V shape as cobra's do.. Thought it was wonderfull opportunity to click its pics while it flattend its hood... So here it is
Cropped from the original.
Found this guy high up a huge tree,more than 15m above the ground. He eventually climbed up to the branch on top and just basked.
Here you can see the habitat and the sheer height he had attained, in search of sunlight perhaps.
