Hi

I would say that from the looks of it, yes, it's a oriental whip.

where did you shoot it?

Well I admit I'm no expert either, still very much a newbie and still learning.

Default whipsnake

I have seen at least three at the small hill opposite Science Park one along the South Buona Vista Rd. Usually after the rain do they come out of the forest there, probably to warm up as the road is warm due to the car fumes.....:-)

For any of you at NUS go there, the smal forested area behind the busstop at the traffic light opposite Science Park One. If you are lucky you can also see some iguana's there. Good luck!
