First time out...

We only had about a half an hour, but my parents just gave my brother a new hook and he was dying to try it out. We found this guy hiding under some old plywood...nothing super exciting; just a nice black racer. It was our first find, though so we were happy.







And here's a shot of the future herpetologist:



Thanks for looking,
Shelly

Coolness...

At least you found something! It looks like it is getting ready to shed. Was it cranky?

The future herper looks like he's having a blast!

It was around 80F during the day today, but it's been in the upper 40s/low 50s at night. Florida winters are weird - you need the heat on at night and the AC during the day.

I do think the racer was getting ready to shed, but it wasn't too bad to handle. I was surprised, but then it was fairly cool out since it was getting dark. There's a really big one that turns up in my barn once in a while that's really nasty.

Thanks,
Shelly
