I'm on vacation in the Black Hills of South Dakota, visiting my parents. Yesterday, I went to the Reptile Gardens. Every time I'm here, I stop by there. This is the first year I ever had my own camera with me. I took 73 pics while I was there. Here are some of my favorites.

An Albino Western Diamondback Rattlesnake:

And on my way back to my parent's house, I decided to stop and do some field herping on the side of the ride and chased this fellow around.

Great pics Trevor. That Green Mamba is awesome! And I have never seen an albino rattlesnake before. Looks like a really cool place to check out.
 
Wow, Trevor... very nice pics! I'd have to agree that the Green Mamba is gorgeous. Boy, the Gaboon Viper is one crazy looking snake. Thanks for sharing your Reptile Gardens visit with us.
 
Sweet pics Trev only time ive seen snakes like that was at London zoo, no other UK places have them.
Gotta get me over to the states soon, that place is on my list of things to see lol. :grin01:
