Since we were having an alright lol day for two board spots. We had already found a DOR king on this road and were looking to find some live snakes. We desided to flip this big metal desk we found at some trash dump. As i was going up the hill this snake struck at me and started rattling. I just about jump down the whole hill. There sitting right in front of the desk was this beautiful ruber.
That was the only snake found at that board spot so here somes the sad story of the last board spot. Well we had only been to this spot once before and found two helleri and a gopher. Well this time we only found two helleri but both had there rattles cut off and were under the same board. They were still alive and it looked like it hadn't been down too recently. It was very sad. They were to calm.
Sorry to find that Bill.
Well that was very sad
That was very sad but now its time for the desert. The first snake found was a DOR Glossy. Beautiful snake. Next a good looking baby leaf-nose was found. I love these snakes.
After that at the same exact spot i found my very first shovel-nose i found another.
It was a nice looking snake but i found one more even more so.
The last snake of that night was a large desert glossy.
The second night i was out there produced 4 more snakes and no DORs what so ever.
The first snake was found as we were saying we were probably not going to find any. It was a very large longnose crossing the road.
Then right off the bat two more shovelnore snakes were found. The first one was drab in color but the second was amazing.
The last snake was another large glossy that i let go with out a picture.
It was a great weekend and didn't find my target species. Just meens i'm going to be out there next weekend. Hope you like all my picture.
I love the desert.
