| Despite the cool temperatures and gusty wind, did a little after lunch herping. Found the following critters:
2 - common watersnakes
7 - spotted turtles
3 - common five-lined skinks
3 - snapping turtles
4 - bullfrogs
1 - green frog
5 - pickerel frogs
Was surprised not to see any common ribbonsnakes. | |
