Re: My Best Photos
Some very nice shots. Amazed the garters and the other snakes stayed still long enough to shoot. Love the color on the blue garter and the yellow & black boa/python! Neat seeing all the garter ?morphs? -- I've never seen most of them before. Sweet little jumping spider. Surprised you were able to get such a close shot of the solfugid -- they tend to spook very easily.

A lot of them are or we're min at some point! ALL of the garters other than a few wild Easterns were part of a massive collection I had at one point.

I think you are talking about the grasshopper with red wings? It was a huge locust we found while in Florida staying for the Daytona expo! It got scared of me and stared threat displaying with its wings!!!

Alessia, that's a white sided black rat snake. I've got one of those at my studio!

Like is an understatement. I have proudly worked with almost every species/subspecies it's possible to acquire here! I at one time had what may have been the most diverse collection (species wise) in the states!!! I had to give it up for the time being though due to a few personal reasons. Garters are very high maintenance!

Re: My Best Photos
We don't have critters like that here and tbh if it had started displaying at me like that, I'd have been scared if it ;-)

Hahaha! I was absolutely fascinated by it! So pretty.... I love inverts and I love threat displays!!! It was pretty intimidating for just being an oversized grasshopper!

In that case, I'd have needed a LARGE zoom lens to get the shot lol. The only thing remotely resembling that we have in Scotland, is what we call a wood wasp, which is about 2 ins long, if they're flying you hear them before you see them, but as far as I know they dont have a stinger, they just LOOK mean :-)
