Ahaetulla prasina
This snake was small for it's species, so I would assume it is juvenile. It was about the length of an adult's arm. An interesting behavior that I noticed was that it wrapped its tail around its neck to rest. It was bright green in color.
This snake was found in the canopy of the SAS rainforest, wrapped around a thin branch.
The green whip snake (Hierophis viridiflavus) is a European species.
