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.

I am so in! I really don't understand why you would want to visit Colorado Devon....you're crazy if I lived around all of those herps I would never leave! (I would adjust gradually to not having lightswitches)
