Meanwhile up north, we are getting two feet of snow. Lol.
Oh don’t worry we got snow last night too, but by early next week it’ll be in the 60’s.
I heard...2 feet! Yikes. Time to pour over field notes and plan for the thaw! Love your channel btw! C
@@NKFherping hey nkf!
Happy Days Mate! From an Aussie Living in China,
Hello from east texas! Aussie in China. That got my attention! If you want to see what I find on my land here in Texas check me out. I just put up a highlight reel from 2021 of my finds. Stay safe out there! C
I have not seen a snake in Pennsylvania since October 19.
It is January 29.
You’re lucky to be where you’re at👍🏼
I love how Worm Snakes have gone from Zero to Hero in the space of one more video. Your enthusiasm in seeing one, following a drought of snake since New Years Day, was great to hear. The drab snake that went to beautifully iridescent made me smile. As a Brit 🇬🇧 all your snakes make it to S Tier for us when we visit. Thanks for taking the time to keep us up to date with Herps your end!,
I love the salamander videos! Brings me so much joy since I use to look for them all the time as a kid!
Been waiting on this! Down here in east texas we get early emergers but not yet. I did some maintenance on my flipsite last weekend and it's gonna be 64 here today. My site is almost one year old and I am very excited to start peaking underneath! I appreciate what you do and it inspires me. Stay safe! Connor
Noah, just take a gander to your northeast on any weather channel. You will find that much of this country is in the throes of deep winter. We have 5 inches of snow which fell overnight here in (near) Williamsburg VA and the wind is making it feel like the Arctic. BUT, I'm very glad that your corner of the world is feeling springish. The salamanders and snakes (the smart ones) have hunkered down in holes deep under rocks and logs everywhere I can see. So, I'll watch your videos by the fire and dream of holding snakes and herping where I usually do, also under 5 inches of snow or more. Thanks for all of your videos, I've been enjoying previous years while we wait out this winter. Keep up the good work!
Iguanas are falling frozen from the trees in Florida.
I like the way you bloom where you are planted. Car broken down? No problem, you'll just enjoy the stuff you find at your house.
I've always admired this guy's love and appreciation for life!! Couldn't wait longer for spring. Keep it up man, your awesome! ✌️😎
The only snakes I've seen since October are my own pets. A friend of mine has a large female spotted salamander that she has had for 16 years now.
G'day from Australia.
I never knew you guys have so many harmless snakes.
We cant pick up snakes here.
Thank you as always!
Love the videos man keep it up I really enjoy them and they make my day
Tomorrow it should be starting to get warm! May have to get out today to see what I can find
Just discovered this channel. Good stuff, guy!
Your axle snapped? Yikes! Glad you finally found some snakes.
Hey guys...everyone please watch the whole video and let the ads play. Also youtube can tell if your phone is on silent play so have a little volume with your viewing! C
at 19:50 ..... "I have not seen a snake in Georgia since January first ... and today is January 27th" .... welcome to the world of most herpers. In eastern Washington state where I live, we typically see our very last snakes in mid October, and will never see another snake until late March. Many of the northern Rocky Mountain states and most of the Canadian provinces are like this. To go just a few weeks without a sighting is actually remarkable to any of us in most of the middle and northern latitudes.
Great videos always. Surprising to me that you're finding snakes in January and February. I always thought they hibernated. Good to know when I am walking through the woods! lol - Danny
Please do a video explaining the difference between salamanders and skinks
Interesting how the leaves help insulate that little worm snake under the rock
55 degrees in January is pretty nice. I'll take it. I'm in the south too. This upcoming week is looking pretty nice. Maybe you'll have another good day or two.
Really nice video.
I don’t know how it is down there, but up north we don’t bait our minnow traps in the winter. The minnows bloat and die. But yeah all traps should be labeled and checked every 24 hours. I appreciate you not taking it, I can’t tell you how many I’ve put out and had stolen within 12 hours because people want to “save the poor fish”
Good job brother👏👏
21:21 really 2 In MN it's -30 wind chill daily
I love the spotted salamander.. always have been one of my favorites...so beautiful. My uncle taught me over 40 years ago about salamanders. You know the spotted is poisonous right? I love the way that you show salamander when road cruising..maybe put your hand down beside to show size...BUT FYI the oils and salts in our hands are actually harmful while handling them.
What an amazing assortment of wildlife all in your yard!
I saw you past a blaze mark on the AT.
We're going to have simply marvelous weather on Monday and Tuesday on the Piedmont, Noah.
Did they fix the car yet?
I should start seeing snakes maybe late march to mid April depending on the weather. That being said I’m in NY. Id love to live down south where there is more wildlife especially reptiles.
The wren was a Winter Wren.
I thought so too. Too small for anything else.
Two dead giveaways: The round body shape is unique to the Winter Wren, and the actions of the bird.
Winter Wrens are almost always found near the ground on tree trunks and root balls, branch piles, etc.
If the little critter's are smart they will head underground especially here in north Alabama . It's 17° but feels like 6°
If you’re in GA, minnow traps are illegal. 😥 Just to be specific, illegal if using in freshwater.
AT LEAST YOU HAVE NO SNOW I HAVE 1 FOOT OF SNOUP HERE IN NEW YOURK
NICE
The purpose of those traps is to catch herpers.
Just saying but the smallest salamander in the United States is the Pygmy salamander which lives in the southern Appalachians of North Carolina and Tennessee
Hi Noah
That green anole was sure brown, do they change colors in winter or was that a phase of the species ?
Looks like it is almost time to start Morel mushroom hunting down there. iv'e got 2 more months to wait :/
We won’t have morels for another month or two, I usually see them from late March and early April.
Wow love seeing the Red salamander! I have a creek near me that I have found larvae in (seems to be an isolated suburban population) but not the adults yet, any tips on how to find them?
Try flipping the logs near the creek but not in the water! Those tend to be better for adults, especially once it starts warming up a bit. If you live somewhere really cold, they’ll be in the water this time of year.
@@NKFherping awesome thank you man, sounds like similar environment to the other salamanders I find around here but I haven't been lucky yet. I'm in southeastern PA so it does get pretty cold and we have snow right now so spring still seems a long ways away.
Have you ever flipped in Utah?
Looks like one of your recent video was taken in Cochran Shoals Park. Can you confirm? Thanks. - Danny
I never publicly disclose localities, but no, I’ve never been there before.
What’s the difference between a newt and a salamander?
newt was the other type of salamander 🦎
Newts are a type of rough skinned salamander.
If I'm not OK with those traps. Some animal could get caught in there and starve to death. That's no way to die.
