An exciting encounter with the King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve on 18 May 2025. It was moving along the walking path, probably hunting. One person was making sure we all gave the Cobra enough personal space.

A female Wagler's Pit Viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri) spotted near the walking path at Windsor Nature Park, Singapore on 1 Jan 2025. An ambush hunter, it stayed still despite all the attention it was getting from passersby. And if you look closely, you can see a mosquito on its snout.

This time of the year especially you have to be sure to look before you reach (or step). In this case it was just a harmless ribbon #snake in the #garden hose pot (maybe it thought the striped hose was its big brother?) but there are also a lot of venomous snakes around here.

My first snake sighting in the Year of the Snake 2025, and it's a beauty. The Blue Malaysian Coral Snake (Calliophis bivirgatus), spotted at Thomson Nature Park on 23 Feb 2025. A highly venomous snake, this one was quite calm and not bothered by the crowd watching it (it did not raise its tail as a warning). After spending some time on the walking path, it went back into the forest.

A Striped Bronzeback (Dendrelaphis caudolineatus) spotted at Coney Island, Singapore on 3 Nov 2024. Accidentally startled it while walking through some undergrowth and got these shots before it decide to move off.

A couple weeks ago I ran into this cute little brownsnake, _Storeria dekayi_, when out spidering!! Less than a foot long and quite slender (the first photo was taken with my lowest-magnification macro lens).
They are not rare, but I virtually never come across snakes in my wanderings and I don't think I've ever seen one of these before. I only even knew they existed because of lurking on /r/whatsthissnake! These small harmless creatures mostly eat slugs and snails.
What a special find. I treasure the encounter. (The snake, on the other hand, was mildly annoyed and moved away.)

A lovely Wagler's Pit Viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri) spotted at Lornie Park Connector, Singapore on 29 Sept 2024. It remained aloft and didn't move while I giving it the 'paparazzi treatment'. :-)
This viper is venomous, but generally not aggressive.

Encountered this beautiful Paradise Tree Snake (Chrysopelea paradisi) at the end of a walk at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore, on 26 May 2024. It rested on the side of the boardwalk, letting visitors admire it.
Lots more shots of it at my iNaturalist observation [ https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/218355640 ].

A Wagler's Pit Viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri), immature female, spotted on a tree near the walking path at Upper Seletar Reservoir Park, Singapore, on 15 Sept. 2019. It stayed still and needed sharp eyes from the butterfly group to spot it. Getting shots was a challenge with all the leaves and branches around it.
It is a venomous snake but can be observed from a safe distance.

A cool spotting during a walk at Windsor Nature Park, Singapore, on 6 April 2019. A Elegant Bronzeback (Dendrelaphis formosus) spotted next to the broadwalk.
More pictures of it on iNaturalist [ https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/22075414 ].
This snake "feeds mainly on tree-dwelling geckoes and skinks" so finding it near the ground was unexpected. Info from [ http://www.ecologyasia.com/verts/snakes/elegant_bronzeback.htm ].

A fellow visitor to Dairy Farm Nature Park, Singapore, called my attention to this amazing sight. A Kopstein’s Bronzeback Snake (Dendrelaphis kopsteini), spotted on 23 Feb 2019.
Locally widespread but rare.

A very pretty snake, the Blue Bronzeback (Dendrelaphis cyanochloris) spotted during the trip to Fraser’s Hill, Malaysia, on 19 Nov 2018.
Our son spotted it moving on a small roadside tree as we were walking past. It stared back at us as we stared at it.
Wonderful encounter.

You cannot predict what you'll seen on a nature walk. This was the case during a guided walk at Windsor Nature Park, Singapore on 11 Nov 2018.
This Gold-ringed Cat Snake (Boiga dendrophila) was spotted resting near the walking path. It hunts at night so it was not active during the day but care was still needed as it is a venomous species.
