That's what I keep hearing... I just got back from a whole afternoon of flipping logs around some wetlands and I didn't find a single snake. I came back with some pics of a spotted salamander, some redback salamanders, two snapping turtles (not from flipping logs obviously
) and some far away shots of painted turtles that I couldn't get anywhere near.
I'm gonna try road cruising tonight to try for some milk snakes in the same area.
