Well as some of you may know, my wife and I have relocated to the UK. It was a move that I was looking forward to, but also fearing, as I knew I wouldn't be having any herping adventures for a while. This in mind, I made it my task to make the most of …
It's been a while since I've written anything for my blog, not through a lack of content but more of a lack of time. I decided that it was time to sit down and go through some of my pictures and get to writing a fresh post. Ok so here it goes, a post about …
Carly and I recently spent a few weeks in the UK and upon our return we were too busy to go out and about looking for wildlife. When we finally had a free saturday we woke up to the sound of the wind howling past our windows. All day the weather was terrible and the …
I've always been interested in snakes but I never really made a point to go out searching for them. You see, living in Thailand means that a snake or two will inevitably show up in your house or garden at some point which was initially very exciting. After some time though, I began to realise …
It hadn't even been a week since we had relocated Bob when I received another message from my friend's husband (who had also given us Bob the Python) saying that he had another python, along with another snake that needed to be relocated. We were coming home from a shopping trip to a different province …

A friend of ours, Linnea, had been asking if she could accompany us on one of our herping trips and what better excuse for us to check out our favourite herping spot again (as if we needed an excuse!) Linnea wanted to see some snakes and as we headed up the trail I assured her …
After seeing seven snakes on the last visit to our herping spot we were pretty sure we wouldn't see as much wildlife on our latest visit, but once again our spot suprised us. Not long into our walk we almost stumbled upon this Malayan Banded Wolf Snake (Lycodon subcintus), literally. It was right on the …
Its been super busy at work at the moment and finally all the work was finished and we had a long weekend coming up. It had been raining most of the week and finally there was a little bit of sun on thursday and Carly said the magical words to me "do you want to …
Our new herping spot is proving to be incredibly diverse and every time we visit it we discover something new. The snakes have definitely been the highlight for me and so far we've seen 4 new species. Here are some of my favourite snake pictures. This vibrant Red-necked Keelback (Rhabdophis subminiatus) This lovely White-spotted Slug-eating …
