Battersby Green Snake

A colleague of mine found this snake in his living room and called me to remove it. I was not sure what it was so took some pictures and did some research. With snakes, caution is always a good approach. This species is actually completely harmless. The green snakes are usually fast snakes and can be a challenge to catch.
