I think this is a very common species of snake, but well, I decided to upload my spot anyway
grass, meadows, wet places.
Wow, What a stunning Photo ! I would be really great if You could add this one to the 'Reptiles and Amphibians of Central Europe Mission': http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1329...
Hi Andrea! I would agree with ForestDragon. The juvenile has a bold head pattern as here. The tail striping is also characteristic. Beautiful spotting!
I am glad you uploaded this beautiful snake! It doesn't matter if the snake is a common one. All organisms are welcome here! :)
This might be a juvenile Coluber viridiflavus, Western Whip Snake. They are very common in Italy. There are a couple of other similar species so you might need to do a little more research.
