A juvenile Platyceps najadum, basking under October's sun.

Platyceps najadum is a very fast and thin snake, reaches often up to 130cm. It is non-venomous snake, belongs to the Colubridae family. It climps easy and fast up to trees, wire and ring fences, etc. It bites if caught. Harmless and beautiful snake.

Hi Ilias,
Wonderful snake you captured here.
Very good image and great content.
They are very shy creatures IMO and 'experience'; often wonders how you guys find them...
Well done
