Thats ok least I know better what he might be, I was pleased just to see him and he stopped to watch me, I got so close I could almost touch him took that pic with my phone
Now, Atrax1207....
Maybe you could post some pics of reptiles native to Slovenia?
Bearded Dragons are not hard to find. However they have good years and bad years, around the year 2000 they were super common around south east Queensland but have numbers dropped off considerably since. Hopefully the rains will provide a few good seasons.Since when? :lol:
I don't have any pics of them, since it's still cold here at the moment. But as soon as it gets a bit warmer I'll go herping and see what I can get.
But I'll try to find few pics of our native reptiles.
P.S.: I have some
We call these "zelenec" that would be "greenie" in english or Latin Lacerta bilineata
Salamandra salamandra Linnaeus
European common lizard, Lacerta agilis Natrix natrix
male in breeding colors
These are the only two venomous snakes in Slovenia:
Vipera berus - I think you call these Black Adder
Vipera ammodytes
Non-venomous snakes
We call these "Belouška", Latin Natrix natrix, common English names are as follows: grass snake, ringed snake or water snake
!These pics are not mine!
Hope you'll enjoy them!
Great photos Atrax.
Wish we had Salamanda here...
LOVE the Zelenec and Vipera Berus.
Thanks for sharing them!
Atrax yes it is, they are everywhere here, i live in Outback Australia so seeing lizards is common especially in spring and summer, hubby will often stop the car when were out and about driving so i can remove a lizard of some sort off the road to a safer spot
in spring its usually pairs i am removing, i pick them up, check for ticks and remove any and relocate a safe distance from the road, i had a pair of stumpy tails last spring i was checking over and i was checking the female and temporarily forget about the male and he gave me a rather nasty nip in a rather embarrassing spot ungrateful sod :lol:
a few years back we had really hot weather and it was very dry and as we have dogs in the car we always have a container and water so i was also offering them water, quite a few enjoyed drinks of nice cool water before going on their merry way
That stumpy tail nip made me laugh hope it wasn't too bad.
nah not too bad, i was just glad i didnt have a dr's appointment that would leave me explaining a bruise on the boob
i hold one in one hand while i undo the bottle and fill the water bowl with the other hand, once they realise what im offering them they usually are happy to stay there and have a drink
