Hi All,
Just wondering if any of you out there can tell me what type of snake this is . It was happily climbing along the window sill of my office last and only took off when approached ( at a distance!) . All those here at my office here in Charters Towers QLD think it is a green tree snake , but i`m not so sure . Could it be a small taipan ? the snake was almost 2m long and quite thick around the middle with only smallish eyes. I hope the photos do it justice( taken from behind a closed window by a snake coward- ME ! ):rolleyes: Any help you can give would be appreciated.:lol:

Thanks for the quick ID . I have just lost a bet now ! ( one carton ) . Anyway thanks for the help
 
looks like a green tree snake to me.
 
What would you like me to say it is & I'll split the carton with you. !!
 
too late , my offsiders here are looking over my shoulder abd has seen it all !
 
green tree snake or common tree snake. awsome animals and non venomous although if annoyed they can produce quite the foul odoured scent. i also found one the other day i picked him up and took him away from all the people so he'd be safe because one lady wanted to kill it
 
he was really quite thick around the middle , thats why i thought he might not be a tree snake , but i suppose he is just really well fed , at work here we have about 60 pallets of stuff stacked out the back and every time we open up a pallet we find at least 2-3 big fat green tree frogs!
