    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Looking for good spots in or around Woodbridge, VA

Hello all,
I'll be in Woodbridge, VA for one night, and would like to go out herping around dusk. I'm looking for corns, rats, kings, or milks. Any recommendations for a place in the area? I'll be there 6/8. Anyone want to join me?
 
Well.. I'm in Virginia right now. I just got back from my herping. I went to route 629 near Manassas. I don't know the exact name of the town I was in, but it was exit 152 from 95S. I took the first left, and then a right at the 4 way intersection (straight has a dead end sign). Anyway...

1 yearling Black Rat
1 adult Eastern Worm Snake
1 Fowler's Toad
1 squashed turtle that I didn't bother to id
1 DOR Black Racer- adult female that was gravid.. her eggs were squished on the road around her-looked like a cat got to it after being run over... people suck!


This was all found in about 2 hours! Every other trip I've taken I've bombed out.. but this time I found stuff! The eastern worm snake was a big surprise to me.. I never thought I would find one of those since they are so secretive. The worm snake was found under a small fallen log about 30 ft off the road. The other 2 and the toad were found road cruising.

I took pictures of all 3 snakes and the toad. I'll post them once I go home tomorrow night.
