We have been experiencing unseasonable low temps lately so I have resorted to finding our more cold tolerant reptiles near my house as opposed to driving and not finding much out and about. Herping around town has allowed me to finally find Charina in Washington County Or, Beaverton to be exact and added another close by location for Northern Gators.





The park next to my house is loaded with Thamnophis. I think its funny how there can be a plethora of good spots all around and they chose to pile into one area. I do notice slight twitching motions not unlike pythons incubating eggs. I also have temped the piles consistently 5-10 warmer than those basking alone.
