Hi Jeffrey. I see you have been inactive for some time but you had some great snake shots in the past. I am trying to drum up pictures of Coral snakes for the Coral Snake Mission found here: https://www.projectnoah.org/missions/240...
I would be honored if you would post some or all of your corals to the mission. I'd like to have some representation from the US. Thanks
:) thanks
Stunning !
Thanks and yes they are :)

Thanks Kerry and naross! Also I was talking about the habitat not a lounging hammock if that's what you meant naross?
Your hammock? Beautiful snake and series, Jeffrey. Cheers for a great description too.
They make themselves easy to spot with those colours. Beautiful. Great photos Jeffrey
Thanks Reza and Ashley
Also this guy didn't make it easy for those pictures either lol.
