Green Mamba
« on: August 18, 2010, 06:27:45 PM »
I saved this guy from certain death on the road home. These are my favorite snakes of all. If you look closely you can see it's giant fangs just dripping with deadly venom...  ;D



Wherever the standard of freedom and Independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her heart, her benedictions and her prayers be.

But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.

She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all.

She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.

Good thing you had that camera lens between you and him.  He might have just spit vemon in your eyes. ;)

Nice photos Mike.
