A quick update from high -- As of late, I've moved to WV to start graduate school in the fall. I the mean time, I'm spending my summer doing field work. I love the fact my entire day is spent outside in the woodland flipping cover and walking night transects. A few lifers have been picked up here and there; Rana sylvatica, Gyrinophilus porphyriticus, Plethodon nettingi, Plethodon wehrlei, Plethodon glutinosus, and the one I've been searching for, Lampropeltis triangulum triangulum.
Good bye 2008, hello 2009 -- A post about the top three lifers (from the states) of 2008; Bog Turtle, Pine snake, and Southern Hognose. Hello 2009 - outline of my first herping trip to the sandhills of 2009. We skunked out on a Tiger salamander, however, found my first January snake ever, first snake of 2009 - Dekay snake. Also, we found A. mabeei, and many N. punctatus with Adrian and Matt by my side.
