Herping Snake Road (and the surrounding area) September 30 - October 4, 2018.
On my final day I paid my last visit to Snake Road for 2018. This is what the limestone bluffs look like (where the snakes hibernate) as you drive to the road.
An adult Rough Green Snake that I caught on the levee that you drive to get to Snake Road.
A Five-lined Skink seen from the road.
Pond Skimmers were omnipresent, and there were plenty of mosquitos for them to eat.
Yellowbelly Water Snake.
A view of the swamp which is habitat to a large number of species.
I was pleased to find two examples of the area's smaller serpents - Worm Snake.
Brown Snake.
Seeing this newborn Copperhead was a great way to end the trip.
