Re: Spring in South Texas.
I like that peek a boo coachwhip in the tree.
Re: Spring in South Texas.
Thanks, that coachwhip was one of my favorite finds of the spring, it's the first banded phase I've found in the hill country.
Oh also, some two non herp things that I thought were pretty cool.

Re: Spring in South Texas.
The coachwhip is so beautiful! My favorite shot, though, is the red-spotted toad (probably because I've never seen one). What a cool-looking little toad. I like the darters, too.
Your post makes south Texas look like a lot of fun.

Thanks!
I loved finding that Red Spotted toad, I didn't even know they could be found around here, but as the post shows, they can be.
