Well I'm just back from two weeks of superb curry, cheap beer and too too much sun.
Here are a few images of this particular trip which was primarily a holiday but will result in some serious herping trips in the coming years.
They are not all herps and include some arty farty shots!!!
Indian Python which was trying to eat my wife!
Ratsnake which tried its hardest to bite me!
A real nice Whitakers boa
Tail of same
Not everyone likes snakes and this is the body of a python
A nicely marked Russells Viper! Scary as *hit!!!!!
From above. Whilst wearing big boots!!!
Trying to get a cobra into a bag!!!!!
Come and look at my nice fangs guys!
A very nice pose
Nice head
From the other side!
Me and my Indian buddy looking happy with a nicel cobra bagged up!
A brahminy kite
After one too many Kingfisher's I decided to show my firedancing skills.
One this last image for those photographers out there in snakey land the camera was set to slow/rear curtain flash and a very slow exposure!!!
Will be back organising a serious herp trip later this year looking for Kings amongst others!!! CANT WAIT!!!!!!
