Best Field Herping Ever!! *DUW*
Hi guys,
So today I went out again... we've had some major rainfall down here in Houston and the forest was flooded... proved out to be amazing!
Around 25 snakes, Thamnophis, a few Nerodia, and a lot of Agkistrodon!
Thamnophis
Another one grabbed an Eastern Narrowmouth Toad, Gastrophryne carolinensis
Snapping Turtle, Chelydra serpentina
Western Cottonmouths, Agkistrodon piscivorus leucostoma!

Nerodia
Skinks
Frog eggs
I'm scared of spiders...

Thanks,
MH

Very nice pics!!
Were those all taken around Houston? I may be visiting some relatives in that area, and if so might have to poke around at field herping. I'm jealous of all the herps you have down there.

Way cool, that picture of the cottonmouth with it's mouth open and with the spider on it are awesome.
Nice job!

Re: Best Field Herping Ever!! *DUW*
Great photographs, I wish I could put something together here in LA. My woods are like really cluttered and I don't like walking into spider webs, so I would have to find some place open like what you have.
-Venomous-
1.0 - Naja siamensis - Zeus (Black & White Spitting Cobra)
1.0 - Naja n. woodi - Hades (Black Spitting Cobra)
0.1 - Naja nigricollis - Athena (Black-necked Spitting Cobra)
coming at some point in the future
Naja annulata (Ringed Water Cobra)

I've been looking for a spot like this for years... finally found it
This place is only 10 mins away from my house and I never knew the amount of herps that were down there.
It's called Ad****s Reservoir, ask your relatives about it!

These woods are cluttered up too, apart from some open areas. Right now the spiders aren't too bad... the moment those banana spiders start coming around again I'll be too wimpy to go back

Re: Best Field Herping Ever!! *DUW*
Great photos!!! I love 'action' photos. It is great to catch life events such as eating, breeding, hatching, etc. Seeing those sorts of thing lets you know all is well in nature
Just wait until we get nights above 60 F here I can't wait until May...prime time breeding season...I plan on spending every weekend (and probably more) herping!!!
