Hi, everybody. I've been a big fan of field herping all my life, and now that I'm in college I've sorta decided that my new life goal is to find and photograph every snake in native to my home state of Pennsylvania. Of the seven or eight species that I know to live near my house, the only one I've never found (live) in the wild is the eastern milk. I know they're out there, because I've seen two of them just moments after other people had taken a shovel to them. However, I just can't seem to find them... I know people don't like giving away locations or hotspots, but does anyone have some photo's of habitats where they've had a lot of success, so I can figure out what I'm missing? The area I live in is mainly a dairy farming region, and I know that I should (in theory) be able to find them under boards and roofing tin in open fields, but so far it hasn't been panning out. Any habitat pics or tricks of the trade would be much appreciated! Thanks a bunch.
