Don:
I like those alterna. They're good-looking. Glad to hear you're having good results this year. Always like to see photos of the hatchlings pipping.

I saw your photos above of the local snake. Glad to see Shane could i.d. it for you.

I also saw some herp life today but didn't have a camera. Driving home I saw a turtle in the road. I stopped to look at it and saw that it was a wood turtle. Very nice looking bugger. That's the second one I've seen crossing that road.

Best regards
John
