Check out the links in my signature. The Va Herp Society has an excellent website with pictures of Va native herps, including a key. The group page is also a good way to ask people most familiar with Va native herps.

"The irrational fear of snakes is the only excuse a grown man has... to act like a complete sissy" - Colchicine

... nature has ceased to be what it always had been - what people needed protection from. Now nature - tamed, endangered, mortal - needs to be protected from people. When we are afraid, we shoot. But when we are nostalgic, we take pictures.
Susan Sontag
