Grass Snake / natrix helvetica. 09/07/22.
A close encounter with a Grass Snake. I think they are less 'angry looking' than Adders!
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
I took this Dendroaspis viridis (Green mamba) on snakeday (July 16th, 2016) at the fabulous reptile zoo of Peter Zürcher in Carinthia/Austria.
Thought I would show a dorsal view of yesterday's nearly two foot long Ring-necked Snake. This species is rear-fanged venomous, but not considered dangerous to Humans. We found this shy species stretched out on mountain road. In Southeast Arizona, they are normally found in riparian areas, or areas where water is present.

Snake wine is an alcoholic beverage produced by infusing whole snakes in rice wine or grain alcohol. The drink was first recorded to have been consumed in China during the Western Zhou dynasty and considered an important curative and believed to reinvigorate a person according to Traditional Chinese medicine. It can be found in China, Goa (India), Vietnam, and throughout Southeast Asia.
The snakes, preferably venomous ones, are not usually preserved for their meat but to have their "essence" and snake venom dissolved in the liquor. The snake venom poses no threat to the drinker. It is denatured by the ethanol—its proteins are unfolded and therefore inactive and would be denatured by stomach acid anyway. [Wikipedia]

An 8.75 mile circular walk taking in a Roman Road and a forest trail. It follows the flagged path of the Pennine Way along a broad ridge with fine views.
These are common snakes, but I always like seeing them. I found this one on a recent trip to visit my aunt and uncle on their farm in eastern South Dakota, warming itself in a patch of sun on a cool September morning. (Thamnophis radix)
The anhinga (Anhinga anhinga), is sometimes called a "snake bird," because when swimming only the neck appears above water, so the bird looks like a snake ready to strike.
Didn't see any snakes in Chile, except for this empty copper concentrate train train snaking down the s-curves at Gaviota siding near Prat behind a pair of GT42ACs.
While crappie fishing in Missouri USA this snake kept coming up each time I caught a fish....he was not scared. You see what happened when I dangled the caught fish in front of him.
One must die so one can live, very hard to watch. the other baby's hoped out of the nest and got away. all the birds were going crazy, robins, common yellowthroat, yellow warblers all were diving at the snake, he didn't care, he just keep on swallowing the bird.
A brown Gardner snake in my backyard. It was raining. I got too close, and it curled up and gave me the death stare, so I snapped one last photo and left it alone, but I'm glad I took one more shot! :)
