Today, with a lot of sunshine and only 5-6°C we got our first reptile in 2015

Good work!

I was out on Saturday and got my first herp of the season - 3rd of Jan is good going for the north of England!

Similar temps to you Andre - perhaps around 5 or 6 also.

Probably won't find anything till May now...

Checked a nearby pond last night and found this L helveticus .

Yesterday with nice spring weather, sun and round about 15°C, I went again to the castle in Tübingen to take a look for some lizards...

The wall were most of the lizards are outside at this time of the year

You can check if you find all Lizards

After that visit I made the decision to take a look at the berus site, but without success - but that was what I expected

Crazy critters! I bet they'll head indoors starting this weekend, with the weather that's coming.

Had my first day out this year to a known adder site. Failed with the adders... :oops:

But this was adequate compensation

Good stuff - was it flipped or out enjoying the scorching uk sun?

The first for me too, yesterday at the Sainte-Victoire mountain near Aix-en-provence :

Psammodromus edwarsianus isn't it ? First time I see this species.
