This weekend was intresting. Roads were dry as a bone, and snakes were all over. I started in my usual spots to flip some tin and scope out the local banded water snakes. The tin produced the usual 50 or so ringnecks, 6 red-sided garters, 1 brown snake, and many coal and plains skinks. I was looking for water snakes and to my surprize, I found more than I bargained for. I counted around 30 just basking around the water fall area of Pillsbury Crossing. Next I headed for the flint hills. On the way, I got ditched by a Bullsnake crossing the road in front of me. I found a good hill, and got to flipping stones. 6 hours later, this is what I found. 4 more garters, 10 emoryi rats, 20 collards, 50 skinks, 6 milks, 3 speckled kings, lots of centipedes and scorpions, 18 Flat-headed snakes, and 6 narrow mouth toads. All in all, it was a good day. Later
