Hi Mark, We don't allow precise locations of native herpetofauna to be posted on the site, for fairly obvious reasons: http://www.herpetofauna.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=282&PN=1 Edited by administrator |

LOL! .
Sarah's driving , she say's," You did phone and take down directions ...yes?" I reply ,"Of course" . Sarah then asks , "and this place is in Wiltshire ,right?" I reply ,"Yup, That's right". We arrive in Wiltshire .Sarah asks, "Ok ....where do we go from here?" I say ,(nervously),"I don't know". "Well.. look at the directions then ". (I tremble) "Eeeer , I can't" *There is a pause of silence, and my mouth goes dry* . " You left the directions at home ..... didn't you?" I turn and give Sarah my bestest 'puppy dog I'm sorry look'............*Another long pause of silence*............ "OOOOOW!" |

Uh Huh.. uh Huh ... we'll say no more Gemma LOL! Tony , Hi.
Please forgive my post above from yesterday , i was in no way mocking your observation ,just in one those moods., Sorry. Mind you , I think sometimes prey can just sense when it safe to behave in a relaxed fashion. I remember offering rodents to captive snakes at times when they obviously not hungry(or fasting). The mouse/rat/ lizard soon seemed to realise that it was in no danger ,and they run around the viv as if it's their new home . Often they'll sit and wash/bask on the snakes back ! I'm sure you've seen this yourself. Another thought is that ,the prey calls the snakes bluff by behaving in an over confident way, intimidating the snake so it is reluctant to try it on. Again , anyone like yourself that has worked with captive reptiles has seen this. You put the live mouse into the enclosure and the snake rushes forward in a feeding response. Next thing, the mouse, bold as brass walks straight up to the snake nose to nose, and from then on the snake won't touch it. Maybe your berus just knew it was in no danger on this occasion? Cheers, Alan |

He was navigating of course, though I think it was me who said "I'm sure it's this way"

LOL! Mervyn .... Who was navigating?. At least you found your way back though eh. I seem to have no probs with my sense of direction.... it's my memory that fails me. I seem to have no probs with my sense of direction....it's my memory that fails me. I have a sign above the mirror in our bedroom . an arrow points down and reads "This Ugly b........'s name is Alan Ahhhh so that's who I am! Just Kidding . Seriously though , Glad to hear you had a good day and the fwoggys are released, good Job!
Tony , I bet your berus had his Big brother hiding round the corner in the heather , "Go on ..Go on ... You just try it "
Cheers, Alan |
