i saw an adder

[wiggy]

Don't think I've ever seen an Adder in the wild - used to keep slow worms as a kid... gotta be careful when hunting them though - never grab by the tail - as they can pull off the 'ol tail detachy trick...

Saw a cute baby lizard at the bottom of my garden a few years ago - must have been not much more than an inch in size - my inability to capture a decent picture with a phone camera (too close - unable to focus - further away - came out like a pin dot) was the trigger for me to buy a DSLR camera that I had been musing on & off about buying for a while..

That was 3 years ago - now every holiday or walk in the country is a photo oppertunity - a purchase decision I've never regretted...

On a ride out yesterday came across a scotty dog called Kevin in Burton on the Water...

i run Dslrs to love photography ,i have a fair shot of a lizzy ,got loads around here on sailsbury plain .Wot camera did you buy ?

Hi wiggs... Canon 40D...

[@bj]

Got a good bunch of lizard shots I took 3 years ago on Dellos... care for a lizard slam..?

I got some good pictures of lizards basking on rocks by the shore of lake Garda. No idea where the pictures are now though.

Never seen a snake in the wild over here, one slithered out into the road in front of us while riding in Italy. Big bugger it was, about a metre long, bloody fast as well!

You missed a trick there Rossio. Haven't you seen Mr Bear Grylls? Snakes are great for storing your urine in, as when you get thirsty, especially after all that hard work in the fields, you have a ready quenching drink for yourself.

Just to be clear...

[Rossio]
