Snake-Iditentification

[mistitikimikis]

Somebody has a clue which snake this can be? Found him alive in the garden where he is stillroaming around I suppose and at the moment of the shot he threw his old skin away.

(Well, as I'm never able to post a photo here is a link)

Size, location?

[Goshawk]

it's a Common Rat Snake (Ptyas mucosus). Totally harmless to humans

the blue cloudy eye in your pic indicates that it's about to shed its skin.

THANKS Goshawk! Indo-Chinese rat snake (ngoo sing baan), Ptyas korros, is my ID of this snake still good??

A couple of days further I found his clothing indeed somewhere in the garden.

Goshawk, location: Thanon Nimitmai, Khlong Samwa - BKK, size I estimate about one mtr.
