His Remarkable Feat Finding Reptiles & Amphibians...I'm baffled.

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

I'm amazed...are you? Plus we found three rare for Virginia in one night! Amazing aptly describes the accomplishment of Ty 'The Snakeman' Smith as he found more species of reptiles and amphibians than anyone else in a single year within Virginia.* As a fellow herper, I can only admire what he has done. I was also lucky enough to go out exploring for reptiles and amphibians in Virginia with him where we found two rare species of amphibians and even a rare fish.
*Based on iNaturalist records. Though, I hardly believe that anyone else has ever accomplished this feat.
All images on the thumbnail for this video are Ty Smith's, except for the photo of himself. (It was the best still I could grab of him smiling!)

    Again, you can follow Ty Smith on www.inaturalist.org under the handle "tysmith" and, if so inclined, you can find my observations under the handle "koaw". Cheers!

    I absolutely enjoyed going out and herping with Koaw and I think it is so wonderful all the work he has done to help educate people! Keep up the good work.

    There is something about going out in the dead of night, finding little creatures, that is fascinating. Loved this video.

    Thank you for the kind words! Compared to Ty, I think most people have a hard time finding them.
