Coronella Austriaca ('Little Austrian Crown' The pattern on her head
reminded somebody of the Crown of the Habsburg Empire) taken in Nov

slowly due to the autumnal temperatures. So it was easy capture her with
my camera.
Obviously this a scan of a rather small print.

Nice capture of an elusive and beautiful creature.
