Thanks everybody

@Stefan: Yep, you are right. We saw them a couple of times

@drache: They love you, that's why they come to you with so many... and they like to give you these itchi presents, all for free

While on holiday, I also made a herping trip in Belgium with an experienced herper. Weather was not really good ( actually to good, to sunny and hot ), but still found some nice reptiles.

Nice Natrix natrix. We don't have light brown ones around here.

nice pics i LOVE that 2nd snake what is it???

[Stefan-A]

Which snake are you referring to? All the snakes are grass snakes (Natrix natrix). Except the one that's a legless lizard.

ooooooo wow they sure are neat looking

[Stefan-A]

Indeed they are. Here's one I found last year.

[Snake lover 3-25]

woa!!!! that looks like a ringneck!!!!

[Stefan-A]

Yeah, most of the grass snakes we have here, don't actually have a full ring around their neck, just one blotch on each side. This one had a ring plus a set of extra blotches, as you can see in the second picture.
