The Indian rock python is usually whitish or yellowish in color with blotched patterns from tan to dark brown shades, varying on the terrain and habitat, and it tends to blend in among the leaves and limbs when sitting in a tree.
That is the case of the Indian rock python that was photographed by Parveen Kaswan, an officer of the Indian Forest Service who lives in West Bengal, India.
Somehow Kaswan spotted the python high in a tree and posted a photo of it on Twitter asking, “Now who is sitting on the throne. Do you see anything!!”
According to Animalia, Indian rock pythons are nocturnal and mainly terrestrial, but they are very good climbers and can often be seen hanging on branches of trees—or not seen, as the case may be.

“Sitting on the throne” was a good hint, but Kaswan offered a second photo as another that gives it away.
“Some people still need hint,” Kaswan wrote when he posted a third photo that zeroes in on the coiled python atop of its throne.
“You have an amazing job and eye for detail,” one commenter on Twitter wrote. “Very jealous yet very happy for you.”
No question Kaswan has very good eyes to have made that initial spotting.
