I like the ones from up there, the ones down south are very drab. Good Find!

In the immediate area, I've only seen atrox and Texas rats. There are a few spots I've seen many Diamondback watersnakes. Snakes seem to be pretty inactive. The lizards are pretty active. I've seen A LOT of Cnemidophorous, Sceloporus, and earless lizards. Heading south in a few weeks, going to look for Sistrurus. Hopefully I can make it out west too, dying to find a lepidus.
