anyways, im in Quebec now where i dont even know what food's on the menu if im in a restaurant.frensh people
so i thought id post some sics of all the stuf that we saw in the evergldes (wel the ones that we have pics of anyways...)
hope you enjoy :)

first the classic


now some turtles :)

whats that softshell doing out of the water...



okok, 1 more turtle pic and il be moving on


whats next? lizards? ok :)







i've got more lizards....but a lot of other stuf to sow you to.






i usually don't mind birds to much but owls are special.



now can finally get to the SNAKES
first of all, the most common one, the banded water snake, we saw more than 30 of those.





next up, cottonmouths, now these snakes are cranky.

look at those fangs!



its the onley venomous species we saw but we saw plenty of them.

now this one right here looks like a brown water snake, we saw 2 of those


florida green water snake coming up next, also saw 2 of those.



we saw about 4 or 5 burms.


the largest snake was a 10ft burmese python but unfortunatly my dad was holding the camera so this is all that i have to show for it,



ah well, moving on...
next a garter snake, the onley one we saw but this one was HUGE (for a garter snake that is) it was like 4 ft.

i regret not having anyting to compare his sise with in the pictures, cause seriously he was aas big as an adult watersnake.

anyways, the next snake's a scarlet snake, we saw 3 of those...




next is the great corn snake seen 3 times



now i didnt get any pics of the coyoty or the racers that we saw but to make it up to you ive got this crayfish crossing the road.



and thats about it, hope you enjoyed it.

WHERE DID YOU FIND THE BURMS!? and did you take any home? lol

Those are some pretty sweet pics fpc...glad you enjoyed yourself and proved me wrong on the snake count.

Lol nice Robbie. Did you ever get your permit?

thanks, the burms ware in the everglades, they have an estimated population of 10 000's to 100 000's
of course, they are exotic so you dont need a permit to take them out of the park.

but my dad wouldnt let me keep one :(

Not yet... I don't have the money for it right now. All of it got spent on Marquis' vet bill (the male Dumerils).

I understand that, but the Everglades is a very large place. I need the 4 L's!!! Locations, latitudes, longitudes, landmarks! Oh, and a GPS track on where you found each snake, if you don't mind. I know what I'm gonna do after the Daytona show! haha.

lol, they cross the road between flamingo and the main park enterance at night. just drive around and you wil see pleanty of them

Very cool, it's so nice when an area like that can easily be got to.

That's pretty cool fpc...

Robbie...what happened to Marquis?

Upper Respiratory Infection. He was bubbling/foaming at the mouth. But he never had any issues before that. No breathing issues, popping noise, none of that. He just started salivating to the point where he couldn't open his mouth. I gotta give him one more shot of Amikacin tomorrow

Aww poor guy...hope he gets better soon

Sweet pictures! I like the tortugas :)
Looks like you had a great time!

nice pics send me some corns love the owl pic btw

tnx everyone,
