Hi! I was about to enter the forest edge, the snake was there of somesort giving me warning to have my feet protected again other snake bite. I was so surprise to see the snake with the head high up. I went closer to it and played my charm by turning my camera (at full length) round and round infront of it.
There, it stayed and would not move. There too, I spent my self snapping at it, which of course with care as not agitating it. I read it can spary its vernom for about 6 ft and I was closer than that. Afetr I had finished, as if it understood me, it crept to thick bushes and disappeared. Soo... HI!!!! Birders!!! Watch your feet! Do Not step on the long snake tail...!!!
