Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

On the hunt for eastern hognose!!!
Did alot of herping this year I found so many snakes but the eastern hognose eludes me. I been doing alot of pine barrens and Pocono mountains even some Maryland areas. Still nothing. Got a few weeks left would love some spots or suggestions. Last snake off my bucket list to find and document. Anything would help. Been spending alot of time at Franklin Parker perseve. Found a beautiful Northern pine juvenile witch was amazing.

I used to find them quite commonly in St. Marys County, MD, when I lived up that way. But that was a good 30 years ago. And I remember a spot I found off of the old route 301 in South Carolina where there had to be a good dozen of really dark colored ones living under a single large piece of plywood.
So they are out there. Or at least used to be.
Just look for places where you would think toads might be found.
BTW, Connie and I found a baby hognose in St. Marys County many years ago that was very brilliantly colored in yellows, oranges, and reds. Very pretty looking critter. So we brought that one home with us and raised it up. Darn thing turned jet black as an adult. Never would have expected that.

I don't believe you will find any scarlet king snakes in St. Marys County, but possibly coastal plains milk snakes, if you are lucky.

If you are interested in coastal plains milks, I found a heck of a lot more of them in New Jersey than I did in Maryland. Wish I still had the locality maps I marked up when I lived up there, but they are long gone now.
