Staring at You! This is a juvenile Sumara Pit Viper - Trimeresurus sumatranus of less than 0.5 meters in length. Saw it on the first night walk of the trip, it has newly eaten something as the stomach was quite bloated. It stays on the same tree for the next 6 days, which I was able to see it everyday both day time and night time.
