Did you happen to get out during the storm on Sat? I did. I went from NH co to the western edge of Onslow. It was a frog lovers delight but few snakes. I counted (2) baby cotton mouths and (1) rough green - he was most likely blown off a bush or scrub on the side of the road.
When I got home there were (2) Eastern spade foot toads on my front porch!

yup didn't find much 2 spadefoots, a ton of fowlers toads, a bronze frog (lifer) and a lone green tree frog that was sick as can be. I was hoping to find some of the chorus frogs or crickets. oh well looks like i's starting to happen. let me know if you wanna get together sometime would appreciate some local knowledge.
