Red Eft (Juvenile Red-spotted Newt) on Leaves, VA
During my trip to Thompson Wildlife Management Area yesterday, I came across this little guy walking across the Appalachian Trail. I grabbed him for a quick photo shoot and got many images in different settings. Just 2 days before finding this Newt, I was talking with a friend about how I needed to get some whole body shots of newts (I only had portraits). Funny how things work out! Now … I could really use some pictures of Black Bears.

Nice shot!
Don’t forget wanting a picture of a milk snake as well…

I was more thinking of what I wanted to see.
Maybe it doesn’t work that way…

Andrew - Oh, I know. And yes, it doesn’t
Patti - A moose works too!

Thanks Ron. He was quite bright … I hear they get brighter with elevation, and this guy was at 2,100 feet (which is almost high for these parts).
