hi everyone,

last weekend me and my family went for a weekend away just south of Nowra to a place called Bamarang. Which is on the Shoalhaven River. We go every year but i have never had a proper look for any herps (except for bucket loads of gippsland water dragons and water skinks). So anyway i got up early on saturday morning and there not ten meters from the house under a sheet of tin was a small-eyed snake!!! What a little ripper!!! lol so i got it moving then grabbed it by the tail. well it didn't like that much!!!! well what a way to start off a weekend!!!!! later that day i caught a yellow faced whips snake, 4 blackish blind snakes, a few geckoes and a big male gippy!!! then next day i found a big lacie in a rock crevice but after 30 minutes of trying to get it out i left it alone.

i will try to put some pics up later!!!

p.s. i have been in europe for a month so am a bit behind on what's been happening!!!
