Where do corns lay their eggs in the wild?

Where do corns lay their eggs in the wild? I'm wondering how on earth they manage to find the 100% humidity and constant 80F temp we're trying to achieve with our incubators. Is there a very high attrition rate for wild-laid clutches?

Now THERE'S someone who has never spent any time in FL, GA, SC, LA, or TN in the spring time!!! :D

100% and 80 degrees is what it stays for nearly the entirety of "spring" in many of the southern States. That's why they're so plentiful there. However, I would imagine that temperature fluctations tend to have more of an affect on incubation time than we see in the captive community.
