Fall... don't know why but that's where my herping starts, i guess when the hot weather goes, the reptiles come out. I saw more in the last few days then i've seen all year. I did not expect this, of course, and didn't bring my camera half the time.

Found a BABY green snake, DEAD of course. But that means more are out there.

BABY racer, didn't get a chance to catch of take photos.... guess that's why they're called racers!

several BABY fence lizards! awesome little guys.

A BIG rough green snake in my back yard woods!

The biggest darn mantis i've ever seen!! About 7 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I'll start with the green snake withs some injurys...

Now for some awesome "bugs".


here is the biggest praying mantis i've ever seen. In the middle of the road second day in a row. I keep having to move him out of the road... kinda scary when he's in defensive mode!! (not really they don't hurt that much)

I'm kinda proud of this picture:




Now, i've seen a lot of millipedes, but you'd be amazed at how many are in our front yard, there's thousands... however they're all tiny, This is the biggest one i've seen.
