It has been a busy October, and as usual I am WAY behind on sorting photos! On Thanksgiving weekend I took a trip to Illinois, organized by a good friend (thanks Steve!). This was my third year doing this trip, and it was a blast as always. We found lots of great herps, and I got a few decent shots too! Here's the first few:
Western Cottonmouth (
Agkistrodon piscivorus leucostoma)

That's all for now, hopefully more to come soon!

I heard it was a great trip - jealous! Looks like you were one of the lucky ones to see the cottonmouth :)
ReplyDeleteTwas lovely indeed, you should come next year (just a quick, 35 hour drive for you)! Actually cottonmouths are quite common on the site, it's copperheads that are the real challenge (photos to come). :)
