Red-spotted garter snake - Thamnophis sirtalis concinnus

Gorgeous picture, as are all the recently uploaded reptile photos.

Are you using flash through glass? What settings are you using?

I aggree with Newzooboy, realy a great photo, well done Varanidae !

Thank you very much!

Newzooboy: Yes, in this picture at least, I used flash through the glass.

Welcome to Zoochat, Varanidae ! Good to finally have another norwegian on board. Regarding Oslo Reptilpark, I have visited it once. And it is indeed a very small facility, pet shop sized, tucked in between an apartment building. The collection is incredibly small and boring. I just wish that Oslo would be like most of the other European capitals, and have a real zoo.

Very nice picture!

I agree - Reptilpark is very boring and only made up of confiscated exotic pets. There is little to do and I had the opportunity to hold one of the Boa Constrictors, but it is not a place I would want to visit again. Unfortunately there are hardly any proper zoos in Norway. Kristiansand has a small collection and there are other collections up north.
