Herp Potpourii

Post by Bostaff of Asclepius »

Howdy everyone, after a few months of lurking in the underbrush I have decided to surface with my first post. I've been a somewhat avid field herper since high school, photographing and recording general observations of each species of herp found since about 15 years of age. I recently graduated from veterinary medical school and, having finally completed that academic marathon, found a spot of free time with which to finally organize my notes and simply recharge my passion for the hobby. Included below are a few random photos of random species from random parts of the world over the past few years that happened to turn out half-way decent. Enjoy!

That is quite a varied assortment! Lots of nice close-ups. Though it's a common species, I think my favorite photo is the very first one, of Anaxyrus americanus. That toad looks poised for action.
