Bay Area Help & Tips
Posted: October 17th, 2016, 10:59 am
Hello all,
I'll be spending a few days in the Berkeley, CA area at the end of this month visiting my girlfriend, I haven't spent much time on the West coast and consequently even the common species would be lifers for me. I'll only be in the area for ~3.5 days but luckily my partner enjoys herps and the outdoors nearly as much as I do so we're hoping on spending half a day to a day seeking out some of the local herps. The main issue is that we won't have a car so will be going to easily accessible areas (thinking UC Berkeley's botanical garden or something like that), if anyone has any suggestions they'd be much appreciated. I'm hoping to see some Ensatina and Taricha, are these realistic goals for the area in late October?
Any help, tips, or advice would be much appreciated. As always I would like to mention that I do not collect and will take only photographs.
