Steve,

Was this animal lying there like this or was it handled prior to taking the picture? I'm asking this because I am always assuming snakes to bask with their entire dorsal surface exposed to the sun and not (like this one) covering a part with another part. So, I guess I am wrong?

Here is an adder found in 2003 at Epping Forest - any ideas of what sex? and you can see that the animal is basking with parts of its body on other parts -

Jeroen,

That pic is as I found her, no handling. Managed to see her far enough away to stalk up un-noticed.

Sorry for being a little of topic but I wanted to share some of my pictures of other European vipers with you all. I have to admit all of  them were taken after capture. These and more pictures of mine are of course also available in my Euroherp Database, so sorry to those who already saw them ...

First an Ottoman Viper (Montivipera xanthina) from NE-Greece ...

Two Nose-horned Vipers (Vipera ammodytes) from Bulgaria

An Asp Viper (Vipera aspis) from the French Pyrenees

and an Orsini's Viper (Vipera ursinii) from Greece

No problem with going slightly off topic there Jeroen, European sp. are always appreciated, going slightly further from the UK, Tony is back from South Africa (welcome back Tony, I still have to do the page for your courses in SA but it is on my to do list ) and has sent through this beauty, anyone know what it is?
