NEVER TOO LATE FOR STUNNING PICTURES LIKE THESE!!! WOW, those are amazing and I am going to use them if that's okay. Can you give some details on approximate locality (you can email me if you want to keep it confidential)....its always nice to be able to give some approximate locality data when we use pics.

Thanks!!

OK.......let's see if I can remember what the heck I posted without having to go back and look.

The first Mitchelli is from the Phoenix area.
The Mojave flicking the camera lense was from Wickenburg AZ
The Massasauga is from Davis co TX
I might get out of order here....
The dark atrox is from Presidio co TX
The little Pricei is from the Chirichauas AZ
The little L. Klauberi is from the Huachucas AZ
The other Mojave is from Davis co TX
The reddish speck is from the Phoenix area
The two Cerbs were from Flagstaff AZ

I think that was all I posted.

Thanks!! That sounds good to me. Thanks again for taking the time to help us out. If you ever have additional pics please don't hesitate to post them or email them to me. Take care, Rob

Thought I put it up but your right I guess I just missed that one.

Shane_OK Nov 11, 2005 08:20 PM

Those desert saugas are too cool. Sistrurus are my favorite crotes, bar none. Out of curiousity, did you find that one in a "natural" setting? I found a DOR tergeminus earlier this year, in western OK, that was surrounded by a sea of wheat fields. I was quite surprised! Nice pic.

It was found on the road. I'd like to see one in a natural setting someday.

....but lordy lordy what a mess o crotalid...eye candy....your blue spec....was spectacular....& probably a bit risky...but the others are gr8t too...mine barely belongs here....

BPO Nov 14, 2005 03:46 PM

I just got burned out on the whole herpin' thing. Kinda glad it's slowed down a bit.
That speck photo wasn't that risky to take. She was a big old gravid girl that was about as relaxed as a speck comes. She never rattled once, odd for that species.
Now your little peppermint princess there is some eye candy!!!!
