Just to make us jealous eh Illias ;-) Can't wait to go there in spring! 

hehe!
Bobby in this one you can see your legs :-D



You'll need better shoes at Thrace! hiking ones! :-)

Thanks Daniel ;-) 

Nice videos you have on youtube Ilias.

Best regards. 

Thanks Aleksandar, but I don't think they're so good :-)

This year I'll try to take some vids with a real pro camera and I hope for better results. Anyway I have some more to upload soon with baby xanthinas, situla and maybe other species ;-) 

That second video was also an Eryx jaculus ?

It was very slim ^^ 

No, no, D.; like the movie title says, that's a Hemorrhois nummifer. Vid is from our Samos trip last autumn. You can see my photo bag and gloves in it as well :-). My silly-faced avatar pic is from the same beautiful valley. 

Oh yea, okay i didn't see the youtube title. 

it's a Jeroen's very successful finding on Samos ;-) 

Daniel, can you rename this thread from Eryx jaculus to "Snake videos", so anyone could upload?

Here's one with a juvenile Montivipera xanthina

 

Hi Ilias!
This is a crazy good looking xanthina: dark (black) bordered zig zag. I like her!

Mario 

Yes it was,
it had a "wagneri" style ;-), very nice specimen 

Isn't that rather usual for juveniles? From the about 15 I've seen (albeit all in the same region), I seem to remember most of them like that.... 

The photos of xanthina (young and adults) do seem very different in northern Greece to me from those from the Aegean and Dodecanese islands. You don't seem to get silver grey males with completely black markings in northern Greek populations. Either that or I have never seen a photograph of one, all adults seem to have a brown tint to them.

well among all the juveniles me and Srefan saw, that was the only one with that light pattern and stroke.
