So, the day got started a little later than usual. My cousin and I got to Andrew's palace at about 8:45 AM
We didn't get going till almost 10AM
And that's bad, because it's so freakin hot nowadays. Bad invert temperature....but we did pretty darn good, considering.
Here we are starting to gather at Andrew's house:
Here's the group photo before the outing (David- "Twirl and Kill" is missing)
1) Me, Neshan (NBond1986)
2) Warren Burke (WBurke17)
3) Dylan (Warren's son)
4) Eddie (abyss_X3)
5) Adrian (Eddie's brother)
6) Earl (my cousin)
7) Liz (lizmotobike)
Mike (Liz's boyfriend)
9) Griffin (Griffin)
10) His Holiness, the Bug Messiah- Andrew (cacoseraph)
First, we visited the WASELANDS:
This is one (and the most successful) of the pit traps that Griffin and Andrew set the night before:
Here it is the next morning.....notice anything???
Pretty freakin awesome
Here's some random eggs I found on a tree stump...anyone know what they might belong to?
Here are some of the cool things we found.....we also found some S. polymorpha pedes, but I didn't photograph them.
SLIDESHOWS (Click on the pictures to view)
This was an awesome find.....a Horny Toad:
This is a BEAUTIFUL and large Kukulcania sp female that I found under some planks:
Here's a cute solifugid I found under a big cement rock. It ate as soon as I threw a cricket in for him. Now...letsee how well I can keep him in captivity...
Found a little mantid (crappy pictures):
And it wouldn't be a SCABIES hike and hunt.....without our dear friend Wendy (this is the only reason I go to these things):
Now for what we have deemed "The Wild"
Not much luck at the Wild, except for a scorp that Andrew caught (i have no photograph of it)
It was too hot. We spotted a gopher snake, but other than that....just a fun hike.
Here's some pics of our epic trek:
Allergic Pirate Drivers run rampant in these parts....
David's wimpy little car :p
Pooor David!!!......he wasn't careful on the road....and look at what happened to his little jeep....
This is Adrian, on part of the hike, being too "chicken" to slide down that hill face that Eddie, David, and myself did.
This is us trying to coax him down.....but he wouldn't budge....
Anyway, those are all the pics I have of this trip. It was fun. We even took a dip in the big stream in the "Wild"
All in all, a very fun day.
Look forward to the next one.
