Happy Herp Weekend

[Andre Schmid]

Hi all,
after a very long bad weather time this weekend was very fine. Sun shine every day and sky was also very good. Here some impressions from this weekend.

Saturday - searching for Lacerta bilineata...not succesfull

Any idea what species ?

Sunday - Trip to the Adders

Monday - Trip to the natrix

And my personally highlight this weekend was 2 Zootoca vivipara´s at the natrix habitat direct at the lake. I spend the last year much time this habitat but never saw some Lizards !

I hope you like this small report.

regards

Andre

Thanks for sharing, Abdre!
I hope the weekend in nearly two weeks and the 2 or 3 days after will have also herping weather conditions!

Natrix natrix habitat, stupid fishers cut the grass through the begining of the lake, all sun spots of the natrix are no more safe for the snakes
(The lines are the sun spots)

Natrix natrix a "death" specim

And last but not least some adders

Does anybody have a idea what the heck this is ?

I forgot the special specism from last trip

Does anybody have a idea what the heck this is ?

Are nematomorfi or gordiacei (synonyms), phylum aschelminti, parasites of ortotteri and other arthropods by young, from adults do not eat, are found in ponds, rivers, water springs. the texture is very tough because of the wall muscle-skin surrounding the celomatica cavity. Males are recognized bifida end

Gordius spp. most probably aquaticus
