Quetzalcoatl !!!

IIf Aztec is not S. American, I am sorry to be ignorant, but would like to think it is. Thanks again!

It is Central/South American. The Aztecs were focal to Central America (Honduras/Mexico) but their cultural influence overlapped into the South Americas. This is also part of the reason I chose this name for him, since his species is indigenous to South America so it seemed to fit culturally.

Oh, I can't believe I was right!! My Father was an avid photographer and I have soooo many pictures he took in S. America. I don't recall ever seeing one of a snake, but there could be and I will have to look whenever I have the time to go through all his slides/photos again. Many are in black and white (parents lived in Ecuador & Guatemala (sp.?) back in the 1940's and earlier) but some are in color. He even took movies. If I ever do find a color picture of your snake I would love for you to have it! Thanks again for nominating your beautiful snake, and so glad that "Q" was chosen as POTD for all of us to enjoy!
