Question Herping?

Maybe you should add a section about catching/finding wild snakes. That might be a hot topic in the spring/summer.

Re: Herping?

I'd like to see a section like that. It's always cool to see other people's field pics.

Re: Herping?

And when exactly is the right time to find garters everywhere?

Spring, Summer, Fall.....I find that the best times is to go out the day after a cool or wet night (not tons of rain, just light showers or drizzle). The snakes will be out in the sun the next day warming themselves up. Also, if you go after rains, you're more likely to see amphibians out and about....and garters looking for them as well. Usually if it's been really hot and dry out, you're not going to find anything unless you look around water areas.
