Fresh born berus and melanistic berus!

[Sjuul Verhaegh]

Hi all,

It is a nice autumn so far! Still good herping weather so I have been out several times. On my blog I posted some stories. During the fieldweek with school we found a juvenile shedding adder and a new born adder witch was still in the yolk, after releasing him self from the yolk he also started shedding! A few days earlier we also saw some melanistic adders, that day we also found al native snakes. That all in one week, only in the Netherlands

Thanks Guillaume! I think the observation of a new born adder is a once in a lifetime moment!
