It’s certainly been a while since I last posted any photos in this forum. I noticed that there is a recent trend for people to start a thread showcasing all their local herping, so I thought I would start one as well for my efforts in my home province. Hopefully, I will be able to add more and more to it in the coming months…
Anyway, as a start, here are a few photos from some of my time in the field in the last couple of months. I haven’t spent as much time as I would’ve liked in the field chasing herps, but have been able to find a few interesting things anyway. I wish I had more stuff to post in this first post, but these will have to do for now…
Hopefully, as the season down here improves over the next few weeks, I will have a few more things to post to keep you interested…
