Started out today by going over to see if there were any Queen snakes or N. Watersnakes out basking in the sun, but nothing was hanging around the usual spots. Wind was a bit chilly so probably not an ideal day. After checking along the creek I desided to hit the ravines in search of.. Ravine Salamanders. This was one of my best finds last year so I figured why not see if anything is out and about on that side of the road. A few rocks later I was kinda disapointed in not seeing much out. Almost called it quites for today when I desided to hike up the hill another few feet and flip a rock or two. Finally got a little luck with one Ravine Salamander all nice and snug under a rock. This makes three for the area and 4 total. I hope once it starts to warm up this place will be active and hold alot more nice little gems.
