Some asp vipers pics from 2014

[Guillaume Gomard]

Hello fellow fieldherpers,

As I was ordering my pictures from 2014, I figured out that many of the V.aspis I encountered in France had not been presented here, that's why I give a short overview below (don't hesitate to enlarge them to get a better quality). 2014 was a good year in terms of asp vipers observation as I could photograph up to 20 specimens in a day, including many juveniles during August-Septembre.

Please give me some more!!!

@Mario: I could have posted those pictures in my old thread as the vipers are also from North-East France.

@Jürgen: It seems that you are experiencing a hard time during winter, here are some more to cheer you up

The specimen below was one of my favorite of the season due to its beautiful red-brick colouration:
