Hi fellow herpers!
My name is Tycho, from the Netherlands and I am since young age very interested in nature. Since about 5-6 years I am also an active fieldherper and spending time in the field is one of my greatest hobbies! Till now I have only been herping in Europe, especially around the cabin in Switzerland where me and my family have spend most of the summer holidays. I have been reading and enjoying this forum for quite some time know, so I would like show you guys some of my herp photos.

You van see some of my photos here:

Tycho

Very nice pictures, thanks for sharing! Love the asps very much and you found a nice selection here ;)

Maybe I'm dumb but what specie is this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/110302714@ ... otostream/ ??? It looks like a Lampropeltis to me :?

I would say it's Hemorrhois hippocrepis.

Thank you for your nice comments, aspis is one of my favorite snakes!

The snake in http://www.flickr.com/photos/110302714@N04/11153188605/ is indeed a Hemorrhois hippocrepis, came across it near Malaga (Spain).

Then it's the countries you've mentionned as Subject which confused me ;) I stick for my words though, very nice pictures.

Sorry for the confusion, I forgot that there was an iberian species in this collection. I'm happy you like them, I will add some more soon...
