  21. Glad it's fibreglass and not the real thing Sandy! It does look very regal and strangely hypnotic. It certainly has a presence all of its own!

  33. Oh yes, cobras are revered in many parts of Asia... in some parts though cobras are killed and eaten, e.g. Vietnam... cobra blood and bile are said to contain magical and curative properties...

    You got me there...I thought it's just another cobra... But its role- spiritual or mythical is- an interesting issue.

  59. Snakes (especially cobras) are quite regal and captivating. It's a shame how some animals get a bad rap.

    ReplyDelete
  60. At first your words reminded me of a Christian hymn I heard in Arkansas. But then... Sandy surely wouldn't put a cobra picture for a song about Jesus. NOW I get it--it's Uraeus, right? Good one!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Oh, very beautiful!!

    Great cobra. Where was this taken?

    ReplyDelete
  67. This guy is part of a carnival ride. We met at St. Rose Church in Newtown, Connecticut.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I love the colors on the cobra! Very striking.

    ReplyDelete
  69. ...You mean, it's NOT a fibre glass cobra? :)

    ...actually, I'm just kinda interested in the concept of ANOTHER fibreglass cobra.
