Diario de bburs

I went out in the very broad fire trail areas of Claremont Canyon/Panoramic Highway. I was able to find many of the referenced species in previous years pretty quickly, and this late in the semester it was cool how many things I could pick out!

I will say that the coolest thing on this bio hunt was finally tagging a snake! My boyfriend and I were hurriedly looking up what kind it could be before deciding how close to get for a photo... we determined "hopefully a garter snake" and I decided to be the one to get the photo since I have better health insurance. I hope I get some IDs on it, but it was pretty hard to take a good photo of it before it hurried into its snake house.
