For the last few days we’ve had nothing but rain. During early summer we get scorching hot mornings and then massive storms in the afternoons. Today while out checking my trail camera I was surrounded by Fire Salamanders (Salamandra salamandra). These are one of my favourite creatures in the Carpathian Forests. They’re very slow, docile and gentle and are beautifully coloured – and they always come out in the rain.
Believe it or not, these 3 photos are of different salamanders…
Oh, and if you ever get the urge to buy a Canon DS412, don’t. I still haven’t discovered under what (perfect) conditions they actually work properly.
