When doing a google "image search" for something very specific, you really have to know exactly what you are looking at because the text very often doesn't match the given photo that comes up whatsover..LOL!. Very often the keywords are only mentioned somewhere else on the site, and shows a totally different type of animal within the site than you are searching for.

For example, do an image search on the EXTREMELY rare Blanchard's milksnakes(L.t.blanchardi) that I have, and you will find COUNTLESS photos that have nothing to do with them at all, but will find only about five photos of an actual Blanchard's milksnake..LOL! One is of the hatchling male in my friends hand before I acquired him,and some of the others shown are sibling clutchmate's of the one's I own, and one or two others that aren't related to mine.

The other photos are completely useless and like searching through a haystack for a needle..this is quite common when doing searches, and especially "image searches".
