The head is not visible but the general appearance of the snake, the size, the locality and the colour (particularly the ventral scales) indicates a green mamba. |

My 1st impression is that this is indeed a Green Mamba, but I remain in doubt. Can't see the dorsal scales too well. Are they keeled (Boomslang) or smooth (Green Mamba)? If any other votes come in for Green Mamba, then I will confirm ID as such... |
