Notes

These were the most abundant animal on the roads. They were in a variety of habitats including roads near old strip mines, suburban neighborhoods, old fields, marsh.

I saw easily forty in a couple hours time. Most were adults, but there were a few juveniles.

These are extremely widespread and abundant, I am not going to post fifty records.

Can you post a date and county for this record? As a scientific observation, one accurate record is much more important than a general account.
