Sally for a salamander

It's a cool damp day, would be a good day to locate a Small-mouthed Salamander for Brent.... Just saying. @brentano @sambiology

Oh man...........so much to do today. Packing to leave for state master naturalist conference this weekend.

Completely understand. Just home from the Trans-Pecos... But to dangle the carrot. I can almost guarantee it'll take more time to walk from the parking area at Dunlop park at Green Oaks and Fielder than to find the first salamander....

Shoot me phone number while I ponder it. I have to run a couple errands between noon and 1. Might just squeeze in a run up there after that.

817-319-9903. I'm in Bedford about 10 minutes from there. Send me your # as well so I'll know you're not a robo-caller. Ha!

817-713-0798. Gonna be hard not to say yes. I'll text you about 12:30 to let you know what I decide.

No worries. Just take a pair of boots with you. Ha!

Success! @sambiology sorry you missed out. @brentano now knows the better place to look than the pond....

It was so awesome. Thanks again Todd.

Wish I could have come -- great observations! :)

Cool and cloudy day, so decided to see if I could locate a sally and checked some other likely spots in that area. Checked the cover boards at the roadside pond and came up blank. Found one at the same coverboard we found the two the day we went @brentano. Then checked a bit down Green Oaks but came up blank there. Also checked at River Legacy in the same area Cullen found larvae a few years ago, but a blank there as well. I think the key for finding them is cover boards. Logs are a bit tougher.
