Re: Advice needed: where to go in CA 4th week of November

Ah, ok. Well, I love finding salamanders, the rare occasions I can. I enjoyed Arcata and the surrounding area when I visited in the summer. I don't have a good eye for the habitats (should I focus on stream valleys, fens/bogs, coniferous forests?) up there though so I fear striking out, but hey, tha...

Advice needed: where to go in CA 4th week of November

Good morning, First, I'm not really asking for specific locations, I know how protected favorite spots are. The situation: I just learned that I get the day after Thanksgiving off, so, I have a 4 day weekend, 4.5 if I get a head start Wednesday night. I'm based in SF. I'm new to California, just mov...

Re: Fall Herpin' in the Midwest

I did a summer doing Copperbelly Watersnake work in Western KY and was fortunate enough to find some longtail salamanders. I still think they're the pretties salamander I've seen. Would love to get back to KY/TN for some herping.

Re: 2 Months at La Selva, Costa Rica

Great pics. I was lucky enough to spend 3 days there a few years back. Didn't see nearly all what you saw, but it was great. Did see some Aracari's raiding a cavity nest and loads of small herps, but no snakes. I do recall a yellow headed gecko as well and many great orchids. Makes me want to dig ou...
