The western sandveld lizard is my fav!! I love the tiger snake too...I could go for the coral as well..what did you bring back for me?! Any of the above will do just fine Great pics Dev! You have light switches in Africa???

Coral cobras are some of the most beautiful of the cobras if you ask me. I love that first shot with you and the cobra. It looks like something from a magazine! The locusts are really cool too. Around here we have grass that kind of does the same thing, but something tells me that's just not as cool.
