Field Herp Forum

Sorry for the delayed response. Been a couple weeks since I've logged in.

I accept.

I think the reason that there hasn't been much response to this post is because there isn't instructions on how to nominate anyone. All we know is the current board members. Can someone explain how this process is supposed to work? I've been following this thread waiting for instructions on how to n...

You are very welcome Brian! I am glad I was able to be there.

Nice work guys! What a beautiful boa!

Zach, First off, I think it's great. You did a great job not giving too much information. I've always felt that telling people what county a herp was found in is a great way to answer that question we always get asked..."where did you find that". The only people that may recognize that area by that ...

Sounds like fun guys! Would love to join. I'll check my schedule.

Very cool Jeff!

Thanks Brian. We are really hoping it's a successful fundraiser. Help us already the word!

As the end of the year is quickly approaching, so is the end of herping season here in Southern California. I know there are still some herps to be found in late fall and into winter, but this time of year is pretty hectic for me at work. So I probably wont have much time to herp for the rest of thi...

What's up guys and gals, So my buddy Cooper Bailey and I are doing a fundraiser to raise some money for The North American Herpetological Education and Research Project (HERP). For those of you that may not be familiar with the H.E.R.P Database, it is a repository of sightings and information on Nor...

Brian, that night we found the leaf-toed geckos and the speck was also my first leaf-toed gecko. Really neat to see!

Jeff,

This is an awesome post! Love the photos and the descriptions. Great work.

Beautiful snake. Nice find!

haha Jim, that's 'punny'

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Great photos man!

Today I went on a hike with some family in East San Diego County and of course that meant I would be herping the entire time. The conditions were awesome today. First find was this Great Basin Whiptail (I think...correct me if I am wrong). I've never been able to photograph one of these before. They...

I'm getting out there a little later than I had hoped. Should be there by 7:00. Bringing my brother with me.

I am pumped for this event. Nick Barrientos and I will be heading up Friday afternoon. Looking forward to putting faces to names.

Cheers

My wife & I will be making a trip to SF April 19th-20th to visit family. I've got her approval to have a day for herping. Anyone want to meet up and take me out? I can return the favor if your down here in my neck of the woods (Southern California). It would be greatly apreciated!!

Hello everyone, I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Dave Zeldin. Some of you may or may not know me from Instagram (dave_zeldin). I post a lot of my finds on there. I am also an admin on the Californiaherps Instagram (not affiliated with californiaherps.com). I've been a member...

Adam & Ross thanks for your replies! I'm so bummed I wasn't around on this mountain bike ride to get some better photos of this snake. I appreciate your help!

Ross, this is the same snake I sent to you via text.

I thought so. Yeah that was a productive night. I thought maybe you had your own personal plane or something. Either way that's still bitchin. Those snakes in Singapore are beautiful! Would love to meet up and do some cruising man. Just let us know when your coming out this way. Just shoot me a text...

Awesome edit Lou. That must be pretty rad being able to fly yourself anywhere you want to herp. I believe we met last year on WW. I think you were cruising with your kids. I was cruising with Nick Barientos. If I remember correctly you were taking a video of a ruber? Was that you or am I thinking of...

A fellow mountain biker sent me this video of this Kingsnake he stumbled across on the trail. I'm not super knowledgeable on the different Kingsnake morphs. First thing I think of is highway morph? I'm probably wrong though. I'm sure Ross Padilla or Brian Hubbs could tell me exactly what this morph ...

That's rad dude. Thanks for sharing.

I cant get over how pretty this snake is. Such a great find. Like I told you earlier, I just really hope this snake doesn't end up in some poachers hands.

So rad dude. Hard work and determination pays off. Congrats dude.
