Introduction, with some pictures

Postby Rémon ter Harmsel » Mon Jun 09, 2014 2:29 pm

Hi all,

I am Rémon, from the Netherlands (which by browsing through the forum is very well represented here :lol:). I work as an ecologist at a large international consultancy firm. My focus in the cold blooded species mainly; reptiles, amphibians, freshwater fish and (to lesser extent) dragonflies. Some occasional birding on the side.
Over the years I have spent time in some beautiful countries and areas, watching herps and other wildlife. I've visited several African countries, spent a month in California and surrounding states last year and have a trip to Australia coming up at the end of this year.

Some pictures of herps below!

Cheers! :D

nothing to add!
When scroling down, my first thought was a very nice Psammophis schokari - but only a Masticophis taeniatus :lol:
