Small Grass Snake was being eaten alive by a Freshwater Crab ( Potamon fluviatile). After the tourists started pouring in we hiked back and stumbled upon a very interesting predation record as a I had not been before and we had this amazing place all to ourselves for a moment. Also some Grass Snakes ( Natrix natrix)Īnd Dice Snakes ( Natrix tessellata) were observed along with the ubiquitous Balkan Stream Frogs and Marsh Frogs ( Pelophylax ridibundus). Photograph Peloponnese Wall Lizard ( Podarcis peloponnesiacus), Balkan Green Lizard and Greek Rock Lizard ( Hellenolacerta graeca).

Do we need a printed form or is a digital one ok? Can you please wear a facemaskĪlthough I am not wearing one? Please take 1.5m distance while we try to push hundreds of people through one security check. We met up at Schiphol where also the staff wasn't really sure what to do with all the restricting measures.
