Re: The Nature Photography Thread

I'll add one to Stefan's toads. About 10:30 pm last night I heard some calling outside my house. Found 8 in our Koi pond, 50% of which were in the process of starting the 2008 population explosion.

Re: The Nature Photography Thread

These are all such great pics!! I went woods walking the other day and all I got was covered in ticks. I think my photo opportunities are greatly reduced when 14 dogs, 5 turkeys and several goats are walking with me. lol

Re: The Nature Photography Thread

Obvious male with the back and tail!
Sadly the sun diappeared when I started taking photos. So had to use the flash on some, which really ruined the colors...



Female vs Male
Female is a bit greenish and lots bigger. The male is blueish, with the ridge on his back

It's the Alpine Newt, Tristurus alpestris, I think?
