For your reports/images, made outside Europe and the "Mediterranean" countries. Not to be too narrow minded and limited to our European/Mediterranean herps.
What do you do when you see your target species, after 2 days and nights searching in the jungle without any luck? One little problem, she is hanging between 8 and 10 meter high in a tree. Solution 1 was just climb in the tree but after 5 meters the gap between two branches was to big and I didn't like solution 1b: My friend wanted also to climb up the tree to push me up a little bit higher.

The habitat
Or you can do it the easy way and just visit the Snake Temple in Penang
Nice finds there, Waglers are such stunning snakes.
There was another option: Funicular Railway to the top of Penang Hill - Find the hotel with views over Georgetown - Order a couple of Tiger Beers whilst sitting on the verandah - Lean back in your chairs and look up into the creeper overhead - usually Waglers.
