ChickadeeXT Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I saw a mama and baby Oryx. They are part of a herd of 20+ which is really impressive and cool to see. People around here in New Mexico are in constant debate about these creatures because they aren't native but I admit I get giddy every time I see them. This picture isn't the greatest quality because they were pretty far out, behind two wire fences. But oh well. Still pretty cool. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know a lot about them, but I think I read that they don’t have spots on their chest, and this guy doesn’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other species I’ve seen there are Northern Zigzag and Spotted Salamander, as well as Red Eft and Leopard Frog, if that’s any help.

The first one is a Cave Salamander and the second is an American Toad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majorly by the cranial crests but also it was more yellowish and less boldly patterned than what I'd expect from a Fowler's. Also GISS just looked really American-y. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's likely the only field mark I'll be able to remember ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HamRHead Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 The Savannah River is high at the moment. An old Jeep CJ5 is trying to reach it anyway. Good luck! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
