Hello from Spain

Postby Alberto Sanchez » Thu Aug 21, 2014 11:51 am

Hi all, my name is Alberto Sanchez from Spain, Im a biologist with special interest in herpetology, since I was a child I have been searching and learning about these interesting zoological groups. As enthusiastic herpetologist I have visited some countries such as Panama, Kenya and Morocco in the search of amphibians and reptiles fauna.

Two pictures of myself:

Welcome Alberto,
hope to see more pictures from you.
Btw - I think that in situ lizard shots are much better than these so called "lizard in its habitat" shots ;)

Nice assortment of amphibians in this thread. Very jealous of the Pelodytes.
