New video out!
And it's the final installment from 2025...the driest I've yet encountered the eastern Plains region being, but despite that salamanders still showed up (including a new subspecies for the channel), as well as a new skink species!

Hoffentlich erhalten auch spรคtere Generationen noch die Chance #Feuersalamander (Salamandra salamandra) und ihre Larven in freier Wildbahn zu finden. Die tรถdlich verlaufende, aus Asien eingeschleppte Bsal-Krankheit, sorgt seit 2015 fรผr Massensterben.

I have a bit of a confession to make. For about the last two years, maybe a little longer, I've been shooting JPEGs.

Anyhow, today I saw a FROG!!!

New video out!
Almost wrapped up on last year's Midwest trip (one more video to come), and this one crossed Tennessee and southern Arkansas, finding two new amphibian species as well as a couple familiar critters.
