Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Fifty Nine! I hope all of you remain safe and healthy out there. Spring has finally sprung here in central Illinois, and we’ve had a nice run of warm and sunny days. My furnace isn’t running and we’ve had the windows open, there’s a nice breeze and I can hear the birds chirping as I put these notes together. So the frog call teaser before the intro is in honor of World Frog Day, which today is, and a happy WFD to all frogs everywhere. Those calls were

Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Fifty Six! I hope all of you remain safe and healthy out there. It's Super Bowl Sunday, and I'm back in the US after a couple weeks of herping in Peru. It was great to get back to the rain forest after a two year absence. Our group had a great time and we saw some cool amphibians and reptiles, despite a rather dry start to the rainy season.

Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Fifty One! Things are good here in central Illinois, and I hope you all remain safe and healthy out there. It’s good to be back, I’ve been a bit busy over the past few weeks, first there was my usual fall visit to Snake Road, which for me at this point is a chance to see old friends and make some new ones. After that I headed down to Florida to do a little herping, and I managed to get some cool lifers, including Blue-striped Ribbons and Blue-striped Garters,

Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Forty Nine! Things are good here in central Illinois, and I hope you all remain safe and healthy out there. Here we go with another midweek episode because once again I will be out and about this weekend. A lot of folks say that May is THE month for finding amphibians and reptiles, here in the Northern Hemisphere. But I have to say that I am nearly as busy in October as I am in May, and I see herps in comparable numbers. So I have a big block of away-time

Hello everyone and welcome to Episode Forty Seven! I hope you all remain safe and healthy out there. I'm back in SMP World Headquarters after a brief hiatus (AKA herping) in Mexico of all places. I went down to Baja California with a group of folks and we dipped all the way down to the northern portions of Baja Sur, and I can now claim to have traveled every inch of Mexico’s highway one. I'm thinking there should be a patch or a merit badge for that. So a couple thousand miles in a little Chevy

It’s the dog days of summer here at So Much Pingle world headquarters and the afternoons are plenty hot and humid. The flower garden still looks pretty good, but the tomato plants are scraggly and tired. But in my general area it’s also the time of year when female copperheads and rattlesnakes are close to giving birth. I got to see a couple gravid timber rattlesnakes last weekend while

Hello again, everyone, and welcome to Episode Forty Four! I hope you all remain safe and healthy out there!

The cold water felt great and there were plenty of Nerodia sipedon and Regina septemvittata to observe.
