Good to see that amphibians & reptiles are getting their own carnival. I try to get people here in Western Australia to enjoy them, but most people still have the idea that ‘the only good snake is a wallet’. Good Luck with it all!

Thanks, Michelle! I’m thrilled you want to participate and support this effort. It sounds like you have a great project going on with discovering all the wonders lurking about your new home. What a grand opportunity! And I’m hoping to see something about the snapping turtle. Though they have bad reputations, they’re really just trying to get through life like the rest of us–and they can be marvelous to observe and learn from. Lots of surprises there, I think.

What a great idea that I found at 10,000 Birds..I became interested in herps when we moved to an area that has a pond and wetland woods. I am trying to catalog what I find in my yard and then there are the interesting interactions I’ve had with a large snapping turtle….I have a post on garter snakes that I will send the link for..and will grab the badge too…Michelle
