    Another snake in the grass...

    This is the female in the tree that the first one was pursuing. I was able to get pretty close to her too, but not nearly as close as the male. She was a lot more alert and took off like a shot as I tried to aproch her from the other side.



    This is to give you a better idea of what I was atempting to shoot through.

    The two pictured were roughly the same size. She was being prusued by several males. Its the dance of life. Love is in the air...;)

    Animorphicly there is no differance in this species, but if you watch the behavior and know what you are looking for you can tell who is who.
