Field Notes

Description:

In Thailand golden tree snakes typically have this coloration and pattern. Golden Tree Snakes are also known as Flying Snakes. They glide very well, perhaps the best of any snake in the world. They are mildly venomous but not dangerous.

Notes:

It was watching me from the tree outside my 1st floor office window.
