Hello,

Here is some recent pictures from Calern (near Caussols) in France.

The main objective was Vipera ursinii. It's at least the tenth time I go to Calern (also for Insects, like Prionotropis hystrix) and at last : one Vipera, and a beautiful one !

And a lot of Falco vespertinus (at least ten couples) were along the road, below Calern, at Caussols :

didnt found one there.
