Last saturday I went out for some herping with Niels en Gilian. We had a great time and found pretty much animals! Too bad some were gone before I could get some pictures of them.

We found:

6 Vipera berus
1 Coronella austriaca
5/6 Anguis fragilis
And some other animals...

Wow! Lovely photo's, thanks for sharing.
That Vipera berus is an awesome looking animal indeed, could you tell us a bit more about them?
