And so the Herping season begins!

Was perfect weather around Vic today, so decided to go out for a herp around the local rivers/parklands with a mate. And although only second day of spring, the changing seasons and some sunlight proved to bring out some nice reptiles

I've been trekking through the bush in Brisbane a lot lately and haven't been able to find anything. Any tips?

Pick a good day (preferably sunny with no wind and not too hot), then you could go search around parks and other habitats for diurnal reptiles like dragons and elapids. Also because you live in qld, herping on warm nights is a good idea. search country roads at dusk and night for snakes soaking up the heat. also search local buchland at night im sure you could find a carpet python, tree snake, keelback and plenty of frogs. good luck!
