Where were you on vacation?

 

[Alan]

We were on a cruise that stopped at Cape Canaveral for the day so we went on an air boat tour. That took one off the bucket list.

Here's a real "in your face!" one. It has been unseasonably warm here in NW FL (it is 68° here today and raining) and I was down by a drainage pond this past weekend. I noticed this gor-gee-us (!) Cottonmouth sunning itself on a concrete culvert. I grabbed the D700 and used my 180mm f/2.8 ED-AIS and cropped in tight and also ensuring I was keeping out of striking range! True to form, as soon as it saw me, it opened its mouth wide. He must be an old hand at this, I didn't even have to say "say cheese"!

The making of a reptile. (Sorry, not taken with a Nikon)

It looks like that really annoying Geico gekko does more than just sell car insurance with a really fake sounding British accent!

Who can ID this little fellow.

I am sorry the picture isn't the best in focus shot. I tried to get a quick photo before some kids came screaming around the corner on the path and I quickly moved him off the path and back into the grass.

Does anyone know what type of turtle this is? I have never seen one with a tail like this before.

What a gorgeous boa!!! I had two Ball Pythons, who have since gone to Serpent Heaven. My oldest one, a female, was 19 years old when she died. RIP Slinky!

Now if the first turtle would move up, we can get some more turtles on this palm

A box turtle conga line? This shot is hilarious!
