Here are the photos I took on the Rodman Reservoir field trip. We
had a GREAT turn out and an awesome time! Shame on those of you who
didn't make it. Seriously, though, it is truly a fun trip that you
will want to go on next year.
Thanks to all who attended. We had about 30 people there, including
Todd Breeze from the Gainesville Herpetological Society (and current
JHS member also). As usual, Rick Wells did most of the grunt work
in the water. I think the driest he ever was, was on the drive out
there. We caught very few herps, but it was still an awesome trip!
We got a little frustrated at the lack of herps, but the humor was
still there. We never did find that hand we were looking for.
Shawn Jenkins was one of the few who actually found a snake :) Deep
Creek was the highlight. The water was VERY cool. Many took part
in diving off the top of the culverts, including Rick Wells death
defying belly flop! It took 30 minutes for the water to fill up
again. Enjoy the photos, and those who did not go this year, we
will not accept any excuses next year for not going. By the way
Bob, don't forget to take your wallet out of your pocket BEFORE
going in the water! |
