After a quite disappointing second trip to Ghana ( I'll post this later), I had to do a short trip in order to satisfy my herping needs! So with my girlfriend we spent two days in Slovenia, and it was awesome.

First snake found, my main target! My first V. aspis francisciredi! I think it's also the fatest aspis I've ever seen.

My girlfriend found this Zamenis, there was hot air blowing where it was, a snake sauna ;)

Nice shots Yannick! Which lens did you use for the snake shots? I like how you see the habitat in the picture.
