2014 has been reasonably good to me so far in regards to the herping trips I have been on. I just wanted to show some of them off... although I'm quite the dreadful photographer. Regardless, here they are.
Lucasium damaeum - beaded gecko.
Nephrurus deleani - Pernatty knob-tailed gecko...
Well last Tuesday night after watching some epic cricket, matthew (pythonwner or some boring name like that on here) got ready to get up at 4am to get a flight to Adelaide.
Arriving at Adelaide we met up with JP from QLD and waited for shawn (rocket) to pick us up. We went to his house and saw...
Just a few recent shots from 2013 before 2014 starts.
Early this year I went to the mallee with Nick (richoman on this site), matt(python_owner) and a few other guys who aren't on this site (steve and dan).

On arriving there we set up our camp, and the tempting calls of banjo frogs nearby lured us to their pond...

I have just returned from an eight day trip to South Australia. As usual, I clocked up many kilometers (over 6000) so spent hours in the car. This was my first herping trip to this part of Australia and there were many beautiful dragons in the genus Ctenophorus that I hoped to photograph...

Still no field herping section so it'll soon be lost...
Just got back from the mallee in SW NSW, we were trapping at a couple of sheep stations near Pooncarie :lol:
At the homestead we stayed at there were plenty of frogs out at night (we were right on the Darling River)
