Re: Big Problem

It's not really something that would piss me off. What would piss me off, is that a good spot for all kinds of herps was ruined.

And that's something that has happened to me twice this year.

- A neighbour used herbicides to ruin a good frog/grass snake spot for me, now there's not a single living organism there. No live plants, no insects, no frogs. Nothing. It's a genuine environmental crime, by the way.

- My mother owns a small piece of property together with her two sisters and it's an excellent place for finding lizards, adders and grass snakes. Now they've cleared all the undergrowth and rocks from the absolutely best spot. If you saw the little adder in the Nature Photography thread, it was found there. As owners of the property, they had a right to do it, but it still pisses me off that they did.

About 95% of the pictures I've posted featuring a reptile were taken in these two places.
