Re: The Nature Photography Thread

So, since the reorganisation of Elaphe, is the Aesulapian snake still Elaphe longissima? Or do I need to look up the new scientific name?

Re: The Nature Photography Thread

In the Netherlands all reptiles and amphibians are strong protected.
When you disturb them you risk a jailtime of 3 months.
And pointing at them is almost a disturbance!
So you better not catch snakes etc. in the Netherlands.

Re: The Nature Photography Thread

As we approach the 260th post in this thread, which has become the most prolific thread on the forum, I was wondering who posed the initial idea? It turns out that it started simply with a nice photo of a caterpillar. Nice job, Stefan .

Actually it started with a PM from me to Boots, asking permission to start this thread. Remember to thank him, too.
