Few recent herp shots

[Snowfella]

Since my first thread here went down rather quick, unfortunately as I found out also the case for the poor little blue tongue I inquired about I figured I might aswell put something positive in.
Turns out I seem to be a snake magnet at the moment, birder by hobby but lately can't go for a single walk without finding something cold blooded to shoot, be it snake, skink or amphibian.

3 walks in a row I've come across RBB's and managed to get close, the other day with a laid back one. Sat down with camera in hand to see what kind of poses it would give me but had to back off 10 odd minutes later as it slowly was coming within my lenses minimum focusing distance.

Love the RBB.

Great pics, wish we had that much reptiles in the wild in the U.K.,( you can keep the venomous ones and all the 8 legged beasties you have)[emoji7] we only got a few natives in the U.K., when I went to Greece in summer was great to see all the lizards about
