Meeting with a snake similar to Natrix.

in #animals8 years ago

Yesterday in the grass I noticed a snake. She looked like Natrix. But by behavior she was aggressive. Usually Natrix is ​​calm and in a hurry to hide. This snake behaved differently. Scrolling in a ball made threatening aggressive attacks.
I doubted that it was Natrix. Maybe this poisonous snake is similar to Natrix?
After a few shots, I moved away from the snake and she successfully disappeared into the grass. When meeting with snakes you need to be very careful. Even if it's a snake Natrix.See my photos.

cool snake :) and very nice shots ;) (unfortunately I don't know this species either...)

With the yellow on head it must be natrix. Viper look different and I can not remember about any other dangerous snake in Europe.

Yes, probably you are right. But look at my previous post about Natrix.
