so far so good this year

Post by Jeremy Westerman »

Getting a few lifers checked off this year has been great. Finding rares has been great. Finding common species has been great. It has been overall great this year so far.

What a haul Jeremy! You have found a lot of stuff so far.
Nice job on the mountain kings. That second one sure doesn't look like a Utah Mountain King. It looks like an animal from SE Arizona. Did you do any scale counts on it? Particularly the infralabials? Was it found on the crawl as the pictures suggest? Was that a NV animal?

Right? Stunner. Maybe that "Applegate" look/gene is more widely distributed than currently recognized?

Was the more-typical neonate the one you flipped recently in the N Snake?

You sure got some screamer lutosus in there. I love those super pale ones.

cheers
