Wow! is all I can say well done guys! Some awesome photography and some amazing finds :) may I ask what part of Limpopo you were in? I'm only asking as I'm working in the Waterberg region next year, so looking forward to seeing some new herps. Can pm if you like :)

FB message sent. The Waterberg is possibly even richer that the area we were in.

Here are some pics I forgot to post...

I’m still contemplating whether I should post the “love” a blister beetle inflicted on Biosmith !?

Just to echo what has already been said by a number of others... some fantastic finds and great photos in this thread!

In fact, it has had a rather depressing influence on my day, especially being stuck here in the office while I am reading of all these great herps... :smt022

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Bushsnake for basically organising the trip, it wouldn't have been the same without your effort mate, thank you.

It was no problem at all, and I already look forward to next year's trip!

If BushSnake didn't tell me about this post, I would probably have stumbled upon it some months later. Which would have been better, because by then the memory of the trip I missed out on, would have faded with the jealousy.

Great finds and photographs, guys. I will NOT miss out on the next trip...
