Here is a photo of a Giant Parrot Snake - (Leptophis ahaetulla) doing a threat display with its mouth open in some habitat next to the Pacific ocean on the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica at Jungla Del Jaguar.

I am pretty happy with how this photo turned out. One of my favorite types of reptile photos is to show them in their habitat. Showing this one in some similarly colored vegetation a overlooking the ocean hopefully gives the viewer an insight into this species surroundings . These are harmless snakes.

It is one of my favorite animal photos from the trip and I hope you enjoy it also.

Es ist Frühling und passend dazu habe ich ein Blumenmakro in schwarz/weiß für Euch :-)
