Reptile Excurison Bonus

Went to a spot outside Örebro, mostly famous for it's birdlife to look for V. berus and N. natrix.
Took the opportunity to make some (bad) bird photos aswell. The proof that even a 400mm lens is not enough!

New Times!

The Only Way Is Straight Ahead! Just Signed Up For A Kayak Introduction Course...Wonder Where That Will End :)

Pic taken from www.fotoakuten.se, could not find the name of the photographer.

Cranes!

Went by Hornborgasjön, a famous place for seeing cranes (Grus grus), pretty impressive in my opinion.

Some Crotalus

Cage setup

A cage setup, best part and the reward after cleaning it is setting it up!

C. triseriatus

Agaves are pretty cool!

Featured in an IKEA commercial!! Good lyrics!

Great cover, heavier than the orginal!!

Music maestro

The thrill is gone! With the late great Gary Moore

Heatseeker, an underrated AC/Dc tune

Yeah!

Don't look back by Boston Live, sorry for the quality

Ice Bath

Preparing for a icebath...sanity or what?!?

Darwin Museum

Darwin Museum in Russia...lots of stuffed animals.

I love this serie...Ottifanterna wish there was more on the web..

Beach food

Some good mexican food for a day at the beach!

Morning music in the casa!

It' better to burn out than to fade away....Neil Young from my favourite album "Rust never sleeps" released in 1979.

6 minutes that will brighten your day! (Joe Bonamassa & Eric Clapton live)

"When they kick out your frontdoor, how you gonna come, with the hands on your head or on the trigger of your gun?" Do I need to say more?!?

Legs by ZZ Top, there is a remix but I was'nt able to find it...nothing wrong with this one though :)

Rattlesnake highway should come as no surprise, turn up the volume and enjoy!

Snow Leopards

 Snow leopard blog

Here is a link to the Snow leopard project. 

The Head Cats

Head Cats doing an old Chuck Berry tune! Lemmy has a distinct voice that's for sure! Cool project though...

Margaritaville!

Wastin' away again in Margaritaville 
Searching for my lost shaker of salt 
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame 
But I know it's nobody's fault 

I don't know the reason 
I stayed here all season 
Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo 
But it's a real beauty 
A Mexican cutie 
How it got here I haven't a clue 

Mexican lizard

A male Sceloporus torquatus I found in Mexico

Paradise by the.....

Enjoying this right now from the masterpiece "Bat out of hell" released 1977! Why don't they do music like this today?!? Beyond me....Amazing lyrics and a great make-out song

Crotalus scutulatus salvini
An interesting species but boy are they aggressive!!

Mexico - a real nice hotel insurance I must say :)
Saying that the company is not responsible in case of accidents, theft or fire. Whats left?!?

S.O.S

Please support this nine year old, that seems to have far more sense than alot of adults!!
An extra hooray for his web designer father for making the site for his son, good work!!

Another worthy cause, buy some of the nice shirts or give a donation (could be made as a gift, well valentines day is coming up)

http://www.rovdjur.se/

A swedish society for preserving our native predators. Be a member today

There are alot of other societys out there and I will post more later...

Golfo de México

The Gulf of Mexico is the ninth largest body of water in the world. Also it is one of the warmest bodies of water in the world. I'd just love to go back.....

Crotalus culminatus

A nice mexican rattlesnake

Great song!

Vodka Gimlet

The above is a polish vodka that unfortunatly can not be bought in Sweden at the moment. Although I prefer russian vodka, this one is well worth buying. Besides 15% goes to the conservation of the Snow leopard that is highly endangered! That alone made me buy two bottles. Back to the headline, take a glass, add some ice and 50/50 vodka and Roses's lime and there you go a simple drink to enjoy your day off or whatever.
