great report!
the horn-less ammo is stunning and the Bombina in running creek is one of the best pictures I've seen ;)

Nice report.
Love the news articles - 'The five said they were merely seeking to photograph frogs' - great quote!

Great pictures and very successful trip :!: :o I didn't remember that you observed such a dark Milos viper, it's a beautiful specimen. The Eresus couple is fantastic too! This post is also the occasion for me to re-discover your website, an already impressive collection of herps there.

Greetings from France!

As usual, outrageous narrative, GJ, I like!

Great report - it's always interesting to read the "true story", written by an objective & independent person... ;)
And of course it is great to see some ambitous in-situ lizard pics.
