Some really good mating shots

Postby Lucifer_Spades » Tue Jan 29, 2008 10:55 pm

Found these poking around it's a set of pics of a pair of wild blue tongues mating. Including an awsome shot of the male with everted hemipenes.

There is also a link to a video but it's a bit grainy still good though.

Thankfully though ignorance in BTS doesn't transfer to ignorance with a camera. That lady got shots most of us could only dream of.

I do believe it was taken in her driveway. If it's the one I think it is.

And I guess that just kills the "never seen mating in the wild" comment from Mr Shea.
