I am finding small streams a lot more interesting at the moment. What Sicydium species are you going after in that location?I am interested in the killifish of the area, and the Sicydium so I will not pass up a small stream like Rio Camarone when collecting.
But beside, and even more scary than the gators, there are some pretty nasty snakes here, to be very careful of when collecting, like the fer-de-lance.
Ah snakes. The legless spawn of Satan. I used to be deathly afraid of snakes, even baby non venomous snakes. Finally got over that. Think they are awesome.........on a nature documentary on TV or from afar. The fer-de-lance and other snakes with that degree of danger are the reason I keep Jack Russells as pets. These dogs earned their keep warding off snakes growing up on a farm in Africa.
