Week 16 - Plan & expected changes in reptile Activity

8/3/2014

 
We're all looking forward to increased reptile activity in August!  Hatchlings and neonates of many species will be coming out over the coming weeks, which means many more individuals available for observation!  Adults of many species will become less active towards the end of August and into September, prior to entering hibernation this autumn.  If you're interested in volunteering, August is a great time to get started!  Please consider registering as a volunteer and submitting opportunistic observations with the mobile phone app, even if you don't have time to get out for formal surveys this season.

This week finds Beth & Jake headed to Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico for the coming weeks.  Danny is burning the candle at both ends to get out volunteer protocols to newly-enrolled volunteers prior to heading south later in the week to survey some newly-accessed sites in Oklahoma and New Mexico.  Celina and Devin will be surveying in Colorado this week and expect to see hatchling and neonate lizards out this week!  They will then be surveying some sites in the western Panhandle of Texas and in New Mexico.
