It’s the time of year where I grade #HerpFall2019 field notebooks! Always fun to see how they remember things and express themselves.

Some #HerpFall2019 students thought belastomatid #insects were “nightmare fuel” 😂

We caught a few of these aquatic predators in our minnow traps. They’ll absolutely eat #amphibians

Whereas the #hognose #snake was a hit

I love it when they recount difficult #fieldwork conditions...like super tall grass

(Your site @FieldEcology haha)

Or getting extremely wet & muddy during #HerpFall2019 #fieldwork

I think many of us know the betrayals of mud islands 😂

The #HerpFall2019 students often note who did the catching (& if there was musk)

Best quote of #HerpFall2019 #fieldwork notebooks is about #snake #poop

“Calm and took a nice poop” 🤣

They also learned practical things. Like not to grab #lizards by their tails 👌🏾
