Thanksgiving Day Herping in Ohio

With sunny skies and temperatures in the 60s in Northeast Ohio, I had no choice but to go do some "holiday herping" today.

Here is some "herp habitat" that I checked out.


Turtle buddies - Midland Painted Turtles.


American Bullfrog, there were a bunch of these hanging out, though most were in the water. A few Spring Peepers were calling, but finding one would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.


I was pleased to see this Northern Water Snake out basking.


I decided to get a shot of it from another angle, because snakes are cool.


Red-eared Slider and its reflection.


Redback Salamander


Was I saw the most of were Midland Painteds - it sure was a nice day to be out.


Happy Thanksgiving!

Tim

Wow! A totally successful trip. I love the Northern Water snake's camouflage. My 9 year (who is always herping) went for a walk yesterday with his cousins and found two garters under a rock. The boy is a snake magnet
