Great pics Ryan. You captured the briliant colors of the Southern Copperhead, and that Dragonfly is very cool. I will post some of my pictures in a bit.

Re: Some pictures from the trip...

The area we where we were should be Southerns, but it looks like this one still had a hint of some Osage, with the white boarders on the sadles. There are many debates on how subspecies are used. Many subspecies are not clean cut in the some of their characters used to ID one from another.  We found another that was clearly a true Sothern.

Thanks for the compliments everyone! I didnt know how good they would be compared to the amazing cameras of everyone else....But I guess they came out okay.

Nice shots Ryan!  Hope we didn't warp your mind any more than it already is (yeah, like that could happen)

Good luck herping down there.
